Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 256/640, 217/831 is 55552.
LCM(256/640, 217/831) = 55552
LCM of 256/640, 217/831
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 256/640,217/831
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 256,217
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 256,217 is 55552.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 640,831 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 640,831 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 256,217
LCM of Fractions 256/640,217/831 is 55552
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 55552
Least Common Multiple of 256,217 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 256,217 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,217) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,217) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,217) = ( 256 × 217 ) / 1
LCM(256,217) = 55552 / 1
LCM(256,217) = 55552
Lets's calculate GCF of 640,831
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 55552/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 256/640,217/831 is 55552
