LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 298/42,273/138

Given numbers are 298/42,273/138

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 298,273

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 298,273 is 81354.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,138 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 42,138 is 6 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 298,273

LCM of Fractions 298/42,273/138 is 13559

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 81354

Least Common Multiple of 298,273 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 298,273 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 298,273 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(298,273) = 1

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

GCF(298,273) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(298,273) = ( 298 × 273 ) / 1

LCM(298,273) = 81354 / 1

LCM(298,273) = 81354


Lets's calculate GCF of 42,138

2 42, 138
3 21, 69
7, 23

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 81354/6

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 298/42,273/138 is 13559
