Least Common Multiple of 231/284,857/744

Given numbers are 231/284,857/744

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 231,857

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 231,857 is 197967.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 284,744 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 284,744 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 231,857

LCM of Fractions 231/284,857/744 is 197967/4

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 197967

Least Common Multiple of 231,857 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 231,857 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 231,857 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(231,857) = 1

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

GCF(231,857) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(231,857) = ( 231 × 857 ) / 1

LCM(231,857) = 197967 / 1

LCM(231,857) = 197967


Lets's calculate GCF of 284,744

2 284, 744
2 142, 372
71, 186

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 197967/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 231/284,857/744 is 197967/4
