Lets's calculate LCM of 251,334

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 83834

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/83834

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 550/251,8736/334 is 2/83834

Least Common Multiple of 251,334 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 251,334 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 251,334 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(251,334) = 1

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

GCF(251,334) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(251,334) = ( 251 × 334 ) / 1

LCM(251,334) = 83834 / 1

LCM(251,334) = 83834
