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 259,3172

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 259,3172 is 821548.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 526,972 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 526,972 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 259,3172

LCM of Fractions 259/526,3172/972 is 410774

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 821548

Least Common Multiple of 259,3172 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 259,3172 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 259,3172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(259,3172) = 1

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

GCF(259,3172) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(259,3172) = ( 259 × 3172 ) / 1

LCM(259,3172) = 821548 / 1

LCM(259,3172) = 821548


Lets's calculate GCF of 526,972

2 526, 972
263, 486

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 821548/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 259/526,3172/972 is 410774
