Least Common Multiple of 238/45,557/2995

Given numbers are 238/45,557/2995

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 238,557

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 238,557 is 132566.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 45,2995 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 45,2995 is 5 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 238,557

LCM of Fractions 238/45,557/2995 is 132566/5

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 132566

Least Common Multiple of 238,557 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 238,557 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 238,557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(238,557) = 1

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

GCF(238,557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(238,557) = ( 238 × 557 ) / 1

LCM(238,557) = 132566 / 1

LCM(238,557) = 132566


Lets's calculate GCF of 45,2995

5 45, 2995
9, 599

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 132566/5

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 238/45,557/2995 is 132566/5
