Lets's calculate LCM of 542,846

LCM of Fractions 542/318,846/727 is 229266

2 542, 846
271, 423

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 271 x 423 = 229266

Least Common Multiple of 542,846 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 542,846 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 542,846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(542,846) = 2

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

GCF(542,846) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(542,846) = ( 542 × 846 ) / 2

LCM(542,846) = 458532 / 2

LCM(542,846) = 229266


Lets's calculate GCF of 318,727

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 229266/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 542/318,846/727 is 229266
