GCF of 148,717,240 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 72,138,446

LCM of Fractions 72/148,138/717,446/240 is 369288

2 72, 138, 446
3 36, 69, 223
12, 23, 223

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 12 x 23 x 223 = 369288

Least Common Multiple of 72,138,446 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 72,138,446 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 72,138,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(72,138,446) = 2

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6

GCF(72,138,446) x common factors =2 x 6 = 12

LCM(72,138,446) = ( 72 × 138 × 446 ) / 12

LCM(72,138,446) = 4431456 / 12

LCM(72,138,446) = 369288


Lets's calculate GCF of 148,717,240

∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 369288/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 72/148,138/717,446/240 is 369288
