Least Common Multiple of 272/20,968/5568

Given numbers are 272/20,968/5568

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 272,968

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 272,968 is 32912.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 20,5568 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 20,5568 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 272,968

LCM of Fractions 272/20,968/5568 is 8228

2 272, 968
2 136, 484
2 68, 242
34, 121

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 34 x 121 = 32912

Least Common Multiple of 272,968 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 272,968 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 272,968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(272,968) = 8

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

GCF(272,968) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8

LCM(272,968) = ( 272 × 968 ) / 8

LCM(272,968) = 263296 / 8

LCM(272,968) = 32912


Lets's calculate GCF of 20,5568

2 20, 5568
2 10, 2784
5, 1392

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 32912/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 272/20,968/5568 is 8228
