LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 297/120,872/116

Given numbers are 297/120,872/116

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 297,872

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 297,872 is 258984.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 120,116 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 120,116 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 297,872

LCM of Fractions 297/120,872/116 is 64746

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 258984

Least Common Multiple of 297,872 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 297,872 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 297,872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(297,872) = 1

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

GCF(297,872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(297,872) = ( 297 × 872 ) / 1

LCM(297,872) = 258984 / 1

LCM(297,872) = 258984


Lets's calculate GCF of 120,116

2 120, 116
2 60, 58
30, 29

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 258984/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 297/120,872/116 is 64746
