Lets's calculate LCM of 26,131

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3406

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/3406

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 288/26,840/131 is 24/3406

Least Common Multiple of 26,131 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 26,131 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).

We need to calculate greatest common factor of 26,131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(26,131) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(26,131) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(26,131) = ( 26 × 131 ) / 1

LCM(26,131) = 3406 / 1

LCM(26,131) = 3406
