∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 8 x 331 x 989 = 5237744

Least Common Multiple of 16,662,989 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 16,662,989 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 16,662,989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(16,662,989) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2

GCF(16,662,989) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2

LCM(16,662,989) = ( 16 × 662 × 989 ) / 2

LCM(16,662,989) = 10475488 / 2

LCM(16,662,989) = 5237744


Lets's calculate GCF of 42,46,560

2 42, 46, 560
21, 23, 280

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 5237744/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 16/42,662/46,989/560 is 2618872
