LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 278/40,189/3564

Given numbers are 278/40,189/3564

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 278,189

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 278,189 is 52542.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 40,3564 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 40,3564 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 278,189

LCM of Fractions 278/40,189/3564 is 52542/4

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52542

Least Common Multiple of 278,189 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 278,189 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 278,189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(278,189) = 1

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

GCF(278,189) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(278,189) = ( 278 × 189 ) / 1

LCM(278,189) = 52542 / 1

LCM(278,189) = 52542


Lets's calculate GCF of 40,3564

2 40, 3564
2 20, 1782
10, 891

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 52542/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 278/40,189/3564 is 52542/4
