Least Common Multiple of 871/28,559/14,236/42

Given numbers are 871/28,559/14,236/42

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 871,559,236

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 871,559,236 is 8838908.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 28,14,42 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 28,14,42 is 14 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 871,559,236

LCM of Fractions 871/28,559/14,236/42 is 8838908/14

13 871, 559, 236
67, 43, 236

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 67 x 43 x 236 = 8838908

Least Common Multiple of 871,559,236 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 871,559,236 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 871,559,236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(871,559,236) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 13

GCF(871,559,236) x common factors =1 x 13 = 13

LCM(871,559,236) = ( 871 × 559 × 236 ) / 13

LCM(871,559,236) = 114905804 / 13

LCM(871,559,236) = 8838908


Lets's calculate GCF of 28,14,42

2 28, 14, 42
7 14, 7, 21
2, 1, 3

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 7 = 14

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 8838908/14

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 871/28,559/14,236/42 is 8838908/14
