Lets's calculate LCM of 538,978

LCM of Fractions 538/31,978/8887 is 263082

2 538, 978
269, 489

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 269 x 489 = 263082

Least Common Multiple of 538,978 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 538,978 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 538,978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(538,978) = 2

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

GCF(538,978) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(538,978) = ( 538 × 978 ) / 2

LCM(538,978) = 526164 / 2

LCM(538,978) = 263082


Lets's calculate GCF of 31,8887

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 263082/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 538/31,978/8887 is 263082
