Lets's calculate LCM of 284,3924

LCM of Fractions 284/272,3924/178 is 139302

2 284, 3924
2 142, 1962
71, 981

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 71 x 981 = 278604

Least Common Multiple of 284,3924 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 284,3924 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 284,3924 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(284,3924) = 4

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

GCF(284,3924) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4

LCM(284,3924) = ( 284 × 3924 ) / 4

LCM(284,3924) = 1114416 / 4

LCM(284,3924) = 278604


Lets's calculate GCF of 272,178

2 272, 178
136, 89

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 278604/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 284/272,3924/178 is 139302
