Least Common Multiple of 3/688,47/124,40/978

Given numbers are 3/688,47/124,40/978

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 3,47,40

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3,47,40 is 5640.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 688,124,978 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 688,124,978 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 3,47,40

LCM of Fractions 3/688,47/124,40/978 is 2820

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5640

Least Common Multiple of 3,47,40 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 3,47,40 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 3,47,40 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(3,47,40) = 1

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

GCF(3,47,40) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(3,47,40) = ( 3 × 47 × 40 ) / 1

LCM(3,47,40) = 5640 / 1

LCM(3,47,40) = 5640


Lets's calculate GCF of 688,124,978

2 688, 124, 978
344, 62, 489

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 5640/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3/688,47/124,40/978 is 2820
