Least Common Multiple of 378/862,456/486

Given numbers are 378/862,456/486

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 378,456

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 378,456 is 28728.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 862,486 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 862,486 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 378,456

LCM of Fractions 378/862,456/486 is 14364

2 378, 456
3 189, 228
63, 76

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 63 x 76 = 28728

Least Common Multiple of 378,456 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 378,456 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 378,456 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(378,456) = 6

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

GCF(378,456) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6

LCM(378,456) = ( 378 × 456 ) / 6

LCM(378,456) = 172368 / 6

LCM(378,456) = 28728


Lets's calculate GCF of 862,486

2 862, 486
431, 243

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 28728/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 378/862,456/486 is 14364
