Least Common Multiple of 48/57,36/17,262/856

Given numbers are 48/57,36/17,262/856

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 48,36,262

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 48,36,262 is 18864.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 57,17,856 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 57,17,856 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 48,36,262

LCM of Fractions 48/57,36/17,262/856 is 18864

2 48, 36, 262
2 24, 18, 131
3 12, 9, 131
4, 3, 131

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 3 x 131 = 18864

Least Common Multiple of 48,36,262 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 48,36,262 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 48,36,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(48,36,262) = 2

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 12

GCF(48,36,262) x common factors =2 x 12 = 24

LCM(48,36,262) = ( 48 × 36 × 262 ) / 24

LCM(48,36,262) = 452736 / 24

LCM(48,36,262) = 18864


Lets's calculate GCF of 57,17,856

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 18864/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 48/57,36/17,262/856 is 18864
