Use the LCM of two or more numbers Calculator to find the Least Common Multiple of numbers 242, 968 i.e. 968 smallest integer divisible by all numbers.
Least common multiple (LCM) of 242, 968 is 968.
LCM(242, 968) = 968
Least common multiple or lowest common denominator (lcd) can be calculated in three ways
2 | 242, 968 |
11 | 121, 484 |
11 | 11, 44 |
1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 11 x 1 x 4 = 968
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 242,968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,968) = 242
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,968) x common factors =242 x 1 = 242
LCM(242,968) = ( 242 × 968 ) / 242
LCM(242,968) = 234256 / 242
LCM(242,968) = 968
∴ Least Common Multiple of 242,968 is 968
