LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 48/488,37/744

Given numbers are 48/488,37/744

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 48,37

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 48,37 is 1776.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 488,744 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 488,744 is 8 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 48,37

LCM of Fractions 48/488,37/744 is 222

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1776

Least Common Multiple of 48,37 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 48,37 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 48,37 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(48,37) = 1

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

GCF(48,37) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(48,37) = ( 48 × 37 ) / 1

LCM(48,37) = 1776 / 1

LCM(48,37) = 1776


Lets's calculate GCF of 488,744

2 488, 744
2 244, 372
2 122, 186
61, 93

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1776/8

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 48/488,37/744 is 222
