LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 31/72,364/48,737/988

Given numbers are 31/72,364/48,737/988

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 31,364,737

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 31,364,737 is 8316308.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 72,48,988 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 72,48,988 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 31,364,737

LCM of Fractions 31/72,364/48,737/988 is 2079077

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8316308

Least Common Multiple of 31,364,737 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 31,364,737 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 31,364,737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(31,364,737) = 1

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

GCF(31,364,737) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(31,364,737) = ( 31 × 364 × 737 ) / 1

LCM(31,364,737) = 8316308 / 1

LCM(31,364,737) = 8316308


Lets's calculate GCF of 72,48,988

2 72, 48, 988
2 36, 24, 494
18, 12, 247

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 8316308/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 31/72,364/48,737/988 is 2079077
