Least Common Multiple of 240/21,642/1526

Given numbers are 240/21,642/1526

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 240,642

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 240,642 is 25680.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 21,1526 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 21,1526 is 7 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 240,642

LCM of Fractions 240/21,642/1526 is 25680/7

2 240, 642
3 120, 321
40, 107

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 40 x 107 = 25680

Least Common Multiple of 240,642 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 240,642 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 240,642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(240,642) = 6

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

GCF(240,642) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6

LCM(240,642) = ( 240 × 642 ) / 6

LCM(240,642) = 154080 / 6

LCM(240,642) = 25680


Lets's calculate GCF of 21,1526

7 21, 1526
3, 218

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 25680/7

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 240/21,642/1526 is 25680/7
