Lets's calculate LCM of 5938,3157

LCM of Fractions 5938/12,3157/582 is 18746266/6

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 18746266

Least Common Multiple of 5938,3157 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 5938,3157 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 5938,3157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(5938,3157) = 1

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

GCF(5938,3157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(5938,3157) = ( 5938 × 3157 ) / 1

LCM(5938,3157) = 18746266 / 1

LCM(5938,3157) = 18746266


Lets's calculate GCF of 12,582

2 12, 582
3 6, 291
2, 97

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 18746266/6

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 5938/12,3157/582 is 18746266/6
