Lets's calculate LCM of 872,587

LCM of Fractions 872/802,587/284 is 255932

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 511864

Least Common Multiple of 872,587 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 872,587 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 872,587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(872,587) = 1

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

GCF(872,587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(872,587) = ( 872 × 587 ) / 1

LCM(872,587) = 511864 / 1

LCM(872,587) = 511864


Lets's calculate GCF of 802,284

2 802, 284
401, 142

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 511864/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 872/802,587/284 is 255932
