Least Common Multiple of 10/42,20/12,81/28,24/156

Given numbers are 10/42,20/12,81/28,24/156

Formula to find LCM of Fractions is

LCM = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators

As per the formula LCM of Fractions let’s split into two parts and find the LCM of Numerators and GCF of Denominators

In the given fractions LCM of Numerators means LCM of 10,20,81,24

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 10,20,81,24 is 3240.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,12,28,156 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 42,12,28,156 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 10,20,81,24

LCM of Fractions 10/42,20/12,81/28,24/156 is 1620

2 10, 20, 81, 24
2 5, 10, 81, 12
3 5, 5, 81, 6
5 5, 5, 27, 2
1, 1, 27, 2

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 1 x 1 x 27 x 2 = 3240

Least Common Multiple of 10,20,81,24 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 10,20,81,24 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 10,20,81,24 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(10,20,81,24) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 120

GCF(10,20,81,24) x common factors =1 x 120 = 120

LCM(10,20,81,24) = ( 10 × 20 × 81 × 24 ) / 120

LCM(10,20,81,24) = 388800 / 120

LCM(10,20,81,24) = 3240


Lets's calculate GCF of 42,12,28,156

2 42, 12, 28, 156
21, 6, 14, 78

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 3240/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 10/42,20/12,81/28,24/156 is 1620
