Lets's calculate LCM of 131,1589

LCM of Fractions 131/161,1589/491 is 208159

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 208159

Least Common Multiple of 131,1589 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 131,1589 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 131,1589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(131,1589) = 1

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

GCF(131,1589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(131,1589) = ( 131 × 1589 ) / 1

LCM(131,1589) = 208159 / 1

LCM(131,1589) = 208159


Lets's calculate GCF of 161,491

∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 208159/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 131/161,1589/491 is 208159
