Least Common Multiple of 87/42,179/28,466/328

Given numbers are 87/42,179/28,466/328

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 87,179,466

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 87,179,466 is 7257018.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,28,328 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 42,28,328 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 87,179,466

LCM of Fractions 87/42,179/28,466/328 is 3628509

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7257018

Least Common Multiple of 87,179,466 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 87,179,466 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 87,179,466 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(87,179,466) = 1

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

GCF(87,179,466) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(87,179,466) = ( 87 × 179 × 466 ) / 1

LCM(87,179,466) = 7257018 / 1

LCM(87,179,466) = 7257018


Lets's calculate GCF of 42,28,328

2 42, 28, 328
21, 14, 164

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 7257018/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 87/42,179/28,466/328 is 3628509
