Least Common Multiple of 868/972,239/542

Given numbers are 868/972,239/542

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 868,239

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 868,239 is 207452.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 972,542 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 972,542 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 868,239

LCM of Fractions 868/972,239/542 is 103726

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 207452

Least Common Multiple of 868,239 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 868,239 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 868,239 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(868,239) = 1

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

GCF(868,239) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(868,239) = ( 868 × 239 ) / 1

LCM(868,239) = 207452 / 1

LCM(868,239) = 207452


Lets's calculate GCF of 972,542

2 972, 542
486, 271

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 207452/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 868/972,239/542 is 103726
