Least Common Multiple of 3036/142,1978/956

Given numbers are 3036/142,1978/956

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 3036,1978

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3036,1978 is 130548.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 142,956 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 142,956 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 3036,1978

LCM of Fractions 3036/142,1978/956 is 65274

2 3036, 1978
23 1518, 989
66, 43

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 66 x 43 = 130548

Least Common Multiple of 3036,1978 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 3036,1978 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 3036,1978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(3036,1978) = 46

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

GCF(3036,1978) x common factors =46 x 1 = 46

LCM(3036,1978) = ( 3036 × 1978 ) / 46

LCM(3036,1978) = 6005208 / 46

LCM(3036,1978) = 130548


Lets's calculate GCF of 142,956

2 142, 956
71, 478

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 130548/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3036/142,1978/956 is 65274
