Least Common Multiple of 278/35,984/261

Given numbers are 278/35,984/261

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 278,984

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 278,984 is 136776.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 35,261 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 35,261 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 278,984

LCM of Fractions 278/35,984/261 is 136776

2 278, 984
139, 492

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 139 x 492 = 136776

Least Common Multiple of 278,984 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 278,984 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 278,984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(278,984) = 2

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

GCF(278,984) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(278,984) = ( 278 × 984 ) / 2

LCM(278,984) = 273552 / 2

LCM(278,984) = 136776


Lets's calculate GCF of 35,261

∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 136776/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 278/35,984/261 is 136776
