LCM of:

Least Common Multiple of 557/842,500/258

Given numbers are 557/842,500/258

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 557,500

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 557,500 is 278500.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 842,258 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 842,258 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 557,500

LCM of Fractions 557/842,500/258 is 139250

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 278500

Least Common Multiple of 557,500 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 557,500 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 557,500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(557,500) = 1

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

GCF(557,500) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(557,500) = ( 557 × 500 ) / 1

LCM(557,500) = 278500 / 1

LCM(557,500) = 278500


Lets's calculate GCF of 842,258

2 842, 258
421, 129

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 278500/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 557/842,500/258 is 139250
