LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 281/600,142/159

Given numbers are 281/600,142/159

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 281,142

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 281,142 is 39902.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 600,159 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 600,159 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 281,142

LCM of Fractions 281/600,142/159 is 39902/3

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 39902

Least Common Multiple of 281,142 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 281,142 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 281,142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(281,142) = 1

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

GCF(281,142) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(281,142) = ( 281 × 142 ) / 1

LCM(281,142) = 39902 / 1

LCM(281,142) = 39902


Lets's calculate GCF of 600,159

3 600, 159
200, 53

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 39902/3

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 281/600,142/159 is 39902/3
