LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 546/42,256/7002

Given numbers are 546/42,256/7002

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 546,256

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 546,256 is 69888.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,7002 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 42,7002 is 6 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 546,256

LCM of Fractions 546/42,256/7002 is 11648

2 546, 256
273, 128

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 273 x 128 = 69888

Least Common Multiple of 546,256 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 546,256 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 546,256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(546,256) = 2

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

GCF(546,256) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(546,256) = ( 546 × 256 ) / 2

LCM(546,256) = 139776 / 2

LCM(546,256) = 69888


Lets's calculate GCF of 42,7002

2 42, 7002
3 21, 3501
7, 1167

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 69888/6

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 546/42,256/7002 is 11648
