Lets's calculate LCM of 556,1636

LCM of Fractions 556/856,1636/587 is 227404

2 556, 1636
2 278, 818
139, 409

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 139 x 409 = 227404

Least Common Multiple of 556,1636 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 556,1636 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 556,1636 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(556,1636) = 4

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

GCF(556,1636) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4

LCM(556,1636) = ( 556 × 1636 ) / 4

LCM(556,1636) = 909616 / 4

LCM(556,1636) = 227404


Lets's calculate GCF of 856,587

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 227404/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 556/856,1636/587 is 227404
