Least Common Multiple of 42/438,4364/3982

Given numbers are 42/438,4364/3982

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 42,4364

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 42,4364 is 91644.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 438,3982 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 438,3982 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 42,4364

LCM of Fractions 42/438,4364/3982 is 45822

2 42, 4364
21, 2182

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 21 x 2182 = 91644

Least Common Multiple of 42,4364 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 42,4364 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 42,4364 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(42,4364) = 2

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

GCF(42,4364) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(42,4364) = ( 42 × 4364 ) / 2

LCM(42,4364) = 183288 / 2

LCM(42,4364) = 91644


Lets's calculate GCF of 438,3982

2 438, 3982
219, 1991

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 91644/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 42/438,4364/3982 is 45822
