Least Common Multiple of 21/12,72/72,537/208

Given numbers are 21/12,72/72,537/208

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 21,72,537

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 21,72,537 is 90216.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 12,72,208 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 12,72,208 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 21,72,537

LCM of Fractions 21/12,72/72,537/208 is 22554

3 21, 72, 537
7, 24, 179

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 24 x 179 = 90216

Least Common Multiple of 21,72,537 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 21,72,537 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 21,72,537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(21,72,537) = 3

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3

GCF(21,72,537) x common factors =3 x 3 = 9

LCM(21,72,537) = ( 21 × 72 × 537 ) / 9

LCM(21,72,537) = 811944 / 9

LCM(21,72,537) = 90216


Lets's calculate GCF of 12,72,208

2 12, 72, 208
2 6, 36, 104
3, 18, 52

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 90216/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 21/12,72/72,537/208 is 22554
