Lets's calculate LCM of 159,298

LCM of Fractions 159/146,298/473 is 47382

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 47382

Least Common Multiple of 159,298 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 159,298 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 159,298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(159,298) = 1

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

GCF(159,298) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(159,298) = ( 159 × 298 ) / 1

LCM(159,298) = 47382 / 1

LCM(159,298) = 47382


Lets's calculate GCF of 146,473

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 47382/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 159/146,298/473 is 47382
