Least Common Multiple of 988/74,402/42,985/132

Given numbers are 988/74,402/42,985/132

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 988,402,985

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 988,402,985 is 195609180.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 74,42,132 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 74,42,132 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 988,402,985

LCM of Fractions 988/74,402/42,985/132 is 97804590

2 988, 402, 985
494, 201, 985

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 494 x 201 x 985 = 195609180

Least Common Multiple of 988,402,985 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 988,402,985 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 988,402,985 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(988,402,985) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2

GCF(988,402,985) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2

LCM(988,402,985) = ( 988 × 402 × 985 ) / 2

LCM(988,402,985) = 391218360 / 2

LCM(988,402,985) = 195609180


Lets's calculate GCF of 74,42,132

2 74, 42, 132
37, 21, 66

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

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 195609180/2

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 988/74,402/42,985/132 is 97804590
