LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 51/26,21/82,357/72

Given numbers are 51/26,21/82,357/72

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 51,21,357

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 51,21,357 is 357.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 26,82,72 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 26,82,72 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 51,21,357

LCM of Fractions 51/26,21/82,357/72 is 357/2

3 51, 21, 357
7 17, 7, 119
17 17, 1, 17
1, 1, 1

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 17 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 357

Least Common Multiple of 51,21,357 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 51,21,357 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 51,21,357 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(51,21,357) = 3

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 357

GCF(51,21,357) x common factors =3 x 357 = 1071

LCM(51,21,357) = ( 51 × 21 × 357 ) / 1071

LCM(51,21,357) = 382347 / 1071

LCM(51,21,357) = 357


Lets's calculate GCF of 26,82,72

2 26, 82, 72
13, 41, 36

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 357/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 51/26,21/82,357/72 is 357/2
