Least Common Multiple of 279/36,246/28,861/284

Given numbers are 279/36,246/28,861/284

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 279,246,861

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 279,246,861 is 160146.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 36,28,284 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 36,28,284 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 279,246,861

LCM of Fractions 279/36,246/28,861/284 is 160146/4

3 279, 246, 861
41 93, 82, 287
93, 2, 7

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 41 x 93 x 2 x 7 = 160146

Least Common Multiple of 279,246,861 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 279,246,861 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 279,246,861 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(279,246,861) = 3

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 123

GCF(279,246,861) x common factors =3 x 123 = 369

LCM(279,246,861) = ( 279 × 246 × 861 ) / 369

LCM(279,246,861) = 59093874 / 369

LCM(279,246,861) = 160146


Lets's calculate GCF of 36,28,284

2 36, 28, 284
2 18, 14, 142
9, 7, 71

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 160146/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 279/36,246/28,861/284 is 160146/4
