Lets's calculate LCM of 8601,1242

LCM of Fractions 8601/168,1242/254 is 1780407

3 8601, 1242
2867, 414

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 2867 x 414 = 3560814

Least Common Multiple of 8601,1242 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 8601,1242 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 8601,1242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(8601,1242) = 3

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

GCF(8601,1242) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3

LCM(8601,1242) = ( 8601 × 1242 ) / 3

LCM(8601,1242) = 10682442 / 3

LCM(8601,1242) = 3560814


Lets's calculate GCF of 168,254

2 168, 254
84, 127

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 3560814/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 8601/168,1242/254 is 1780407
