LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 487/42,317/2981

Given numbers are 487/42,317/2981

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 487,317

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 487,317 is 154379.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,2981 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 42,2981 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 487,317

LCM of Fractions 487/42,317/2981 is 154379

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 154379

Least Common Multiple of 487,317 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 487,317 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 487,317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(487,317) = 1

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

GCF(487,317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(487,317) = ( 487 × 317 ) / 1

LCM(487,317) = 154379 / 1

LCM(487,317) = 154379


Lets's calculate GCF of 42,2981

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 154379/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 487/42,317/2981 is 154379
