Least Common Multiple of 172/960,7009/1296

Given numbers are 172/960,7009/1296

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 172,7009

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 172,7009 is 28036.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 960,1296 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 960,1296 is 48 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 172,7009

LCM of Fractions 172/960,7009/1296 is 28036/48

43 172, 7009
4, 163

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 43 x 4 x 163 = 28036

Least Common Multiple of 172,7009 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 172,7009 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 172,7009 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(172,7009) = 43

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

GCF(172,7009) x common factors =43 x 1 = 43

LCM(172,7009) = ( 172 × 7009 ) / 43

LCM(172,7009) = 1205548 / 43

LCM(172,7009) = 28036


Lets's calculate GCF of 960,1296

2 960, 1296
2 480, 648
2 240, 324
2 120, 162
3 60, 81
20, 27

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 48

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 28036/48

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 172/960,7009/1296 is 28036/48
