Lets's calculate LCM of 256,1787

LCM of Fractions 256/28,1787/462 is 457472/14

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 457472

Least Common Multiple of 256,1787 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 256,1787 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 256,1787 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(256,1787) = 1

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

GCF(256,1787) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(256,1787) = ( 256 × 1787 ) / 1

LCM(256,1787) = 457472 / 1

LCM(256,1787) = 457472


Lets's calculate GCF of 28,462

2 28, 462
7 14, 231
2, 33

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 7 = 14

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 457472/14

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 256/28,1787/462 is 457472/14
