LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 240/38,162/5864

Given numbers are 240/38,162/5864

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 240,162

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 240,162 is 6480.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 38,5864 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 38,5864 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 240,162

LCM of Fractions 240/38,162/5864 is 3240

2 240, 162
3 120, 81
40, 27

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 40 x 27 = 6480

Least Common Multiple of 240,162 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 240,162 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 240,162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(240,162) = 6

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

GCF(240,162) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6

LCM(240,162) = ( 240 × 162 ) / 6

LCM(240,162) = 38880 / 6

LCM(240,162) = 6480


Lets's calculate GCF of 38,5864

2 38, 5864
19, 2932

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 6480/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 240/38,162/5864 is 3240
