Lets's calculate LCM of 56,5288

LCM of Fractions 56/172,5288/3320 is 9254

2 56, 5288
2 28, 2644
2 14, 1322
7, 661

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 661 = 37016

Least Common Multiple of 56,5288 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 56,5288 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 56,5288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(56,5288) = 8

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

GCF(56,5288) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8

LCM(56,5288) = ( 56 × 5288 ) / 8

LCM(56,5288) = 296128 / 8

LCM(56,5288) = 37016


Lets's calculate GCF of 172,3320

2 172, 3320
2 86, 1660
43, 830

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 37016/4

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 56/172,5288/3320 is 9254
