Least Common Multiple of 286/40,501/98,578/12

Given numbers are 286/40,501/98,578/12

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 286,501,578

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 286,501,578 is 41409654.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 40,98,12 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 40,98,12 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 286,501,578

LCM of Fractions 286/40,501/98,578/12 is 20704827

2 286, 501, 578
143, 501, 289

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 143 x 501 x 289 = 41409654

Least Common Multiple of 286,501,578 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 286,501,578 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 286,501,578 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(286,501,578) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2

GCF(286,501,578) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2

LCM(286,501,578) = ( 286 × 501 × 578 ) / 2

LCM(286,501,578) = 82819308 / 2

LCM(286,501,578) = 41409654


Lets's calculate GCF of 40,98,12

2 40, 98, 12
20, 49, 6

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 41409654/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 286/40,501/98,578/12 is 20704827
