Least Common Multiple of 8472,3178 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 8472,3178 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 8472,3178 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(8472,3178) = 2

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

GCF(8472,3178) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2

LCM(8472,3178) = ( 8472 × 3178 ) / 2

LCM(8472,3178) = 26924016 / 2

LCM(8472,3178) = 13462008


Lets's calculate GCF of 879,520

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 13462008/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 8472/879,3178/520 is 13462008
