Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3

LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 55/265,26/159

Given numbers are 55/265,26/159

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 55,26

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 55,26 is 1430.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 265,159 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 265,159 is 53 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 55,26

LCM of Fractions 55/265,26/159 is 1430/53

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1430

Least Common Multiple of 55,26 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 55,26 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 55,26 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(55,26) = 1

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

GCF(55,26) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(55,26) = ( 55 × 26 ) / 1

LCM(55,26) = 1430 / 1

LCM(55,26) = 1430


Lets's calculate GCF of 265,159

53 265, 159
5, 3

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 53 = 53

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1430/53

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 55/265,26/159 is 1430/53
