Lets's calculate LCM of 557,874

LCM of Fractions 557/421,874/426 is 486818

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 486818

Least Common Multiple of 557,874 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 557,874 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 557,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(557,874) = 1

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

GCF(557,874) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(557,874) = ( 557 × 874 ) / 1

LCM(557,874) = 486818 / 1

LCM(557,874) = 486818


Lets's calculate GCF of 421,426

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 486818/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 557/421,874/426 is 486818
