Lets's calculate LCM of 42,9979

LCM of Fractions 42/159,9979/6895 is 419118

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 419118

Least Common Multiple of 42,9979 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 42,9979 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 42,9979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(42,9979) = 1

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

GCF(42,9979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(42,9979) = ( 42 × 9979 ) / 1

LCM(42,9979) = 419118 / 1

LCM(42,9979) = 419118


Lets's calculate GCF of 159,6895

∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 419118/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 42/159,9979/6895 is 419118
