Lets's calculate LCM of 197,842

LCM of Fractions 197/257,842/116 is 165874

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 165874

Least Common Multiple of 197,842 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 197,842 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 197,842 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(197,842) = 1

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

GCF(197,842) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(197,842) = ( 197 × 842 ) / 1

LCM(197,842) = 165874 / 1

LCM(197,842) = 165874


Lets's calculate GCF of 257,116

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 165874/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 197/257,842/116 is 165874
