Lets's calculate LCM of 278,7237

LCM of Fractions 278/642,7237/456 is 2011886/6

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2011886

Least Common Multiple of 278,7237 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 278,7237 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 278,7237 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(278,7237) = 1

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

GCF(278,7237) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(278,7237) = ( 278 × 7237 ) / 1

LCM(278,7237) = 2011886 / 1

LCM(278,7237) = 2011886


Lets's calculate GCF of 642,456

2 642, 456
3 321, 228
107, 76

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2011886/6

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 278/642,7237/456 is 2011886/6
