Least Common Multiple of 287/431,938/697

Given numbers are 287/431,938/697

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 287,938

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 287,938 is 38458.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 431,697 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 431,697 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 287,938

LCM of Fractions 287/431,938/697 is 38458

7 287, 938
41, 134

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 41 x 134 = 38458

Least Common Multiple of 287,938 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 287,938 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 287,938 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(287,938) = 7

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

GCF(287,938) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7

LCM(287,938) = ( 287 × 938 ) / 7

LCM(287,938) = 269206 / 7

LCM(287,938) = 38458


Lets's calculate GCF of 431,697

∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 38458/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 287/431,938/697 is 38458
