Least Common Multiple of 686/862,2744/332

Given numbers are 686/862,2744/332

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 686,2744

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 686,2744 is 2744.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 862,332 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 862,332 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 686,2744

LCM of Fractions 686/862,2744/332 is 1372

2 686, 2744
7 343, 1372
7 49, 196
7 7, 28
1, 4

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 1 x 4 = 2744

Least Common Multiple of 686,2744 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 686,2744 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 686,2744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(686,2744) = 686

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

GCF(686,2744) x common factors =686 x 1 = 686

LCM(686,2744) = ( 686 × 2744 ) / 686

LCM(686,2744) = 1882384 / 686

LCM(686,2744) = 2744


Lets's calculate GCF of 862,332

2 862, 332
431, 166

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2744/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 686/862,2744/332 is 1372
