Lets's calculate LCM of 71,9938

LCM of Fractions 71/138,9938/8958 is 705598/6

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 705598

Least Common Multiple of 71,9938 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 71,9938 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 71,9938 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(71,9938) = 1

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

GCF(71,9938) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(71,9938) = ( 71 × 9938 ) / 1

LCM(71,9938) = 705598 / 1

LCM(71,9938) = 705598


Lets's calculate GCF of 138,8958

2 138, 8958
3 69, 4479
23, 1493

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 705598/6

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 71/138,9938/8958 is 705598/6
