Least Common Multiple of 742/406,470/228

Given numbers are 742/406,470/228

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 742,470

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 742,470 is 174370.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 406,228 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 406,228 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 742,470

LCM of Fractions 742/406,470/228 is 87185

2 742, 470
371, 235

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 371 x 235 = 174370

Least Common Multiple of 742,470 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 742,470 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 742,470 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(742,470) = 2

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

GCF(742,470) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(742,470) = ( 742 × 470 ) / 2

LCM(742,470) = 348740 / 2

LCM(742,470) = 174370


Lets's calculate GCF of 406,228

2 406, 228
203, 114

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 174370/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 742/406,470/228 is 87185
