Least Common Multiple of 879/156,240/966

Given numbers are 879/156,240/966

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 879,240

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 879,240 is 70320.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 156,966 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 156,966 is 6 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 879,240

LCM of Fractions 879/156,240/966 is 11720

3 879, 240
293, 80

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 293 x 80 = 70320

Least Common Multiple of 879,240 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 879,240 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 879,240 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(879,240) = 3

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

GCF(879,240) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3

LCM(879,240) = ( 879 × 240 ) / 3

LCM(879,240) = 210960 / 3

LCM(879,240) = 70320


Lets's calculate GCF of 156,966

2 156, 966
3 78, 483
26, 161

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 70320/6

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 879/156,240/966 is 11720
