Least Common Multiple of 550/42,716/7874

Given numbers are 550/42,716/7874

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 550,716

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 550,716 is 196900.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,7874 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 42,7874 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 550,716

LCM of Fractions 550/42,716/7874 is 98450

2 550, 716
275, 358

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 275 x 358 = 196900

Least Common Multiple of 550,716 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 550,716 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 550,716 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(550,716) = 2

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

GCF(550,716) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(550,716) = ( 550 × 716 ) / 2

LCM(550,716) = 393800 / 2

LCM(550,716) = 196900


Lets's calculate GCF of 42,7874

2 42, 7874
21, 3937

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 196900/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 550/42,716/7874 is 98450
