LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 238/15,120/4960

Given numbers are 238/15,120/4960

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 238,120

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 238,120 is 14280.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 15,4960 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 15,4960 is 5 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 238,120

LCM of Fractions 238/15,120/4960 is 2856

2 238, 120
119, 60

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 119 x 60 = 14280

Least Common Multiple of 238,120 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 238,120 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 238,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(238,120) = 2

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

GCF(238,120) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(238,120) = ( 238 × 120 ) / 2

LCM(238,120) = 28560 / 2

LCM(238,120) = 14280


Lets's calculate GCF of 15,4960

5 15, 4960
3, 992

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 14280/5

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 238/15,120/4960 is 2856
