Least Common Multiple of 996/400,1542/639

Given numbers are 996/400,1542/639

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 996,1542

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 996,1542 is 255972.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 400,639 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 400,639 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 996,1542

LCM of Fractions 996/400,1542/639 is 255972

2 996, 1542
3 498, 771
166, 257

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 166 x 257 = 255972

Least Common Multiple of 996,1542 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 996,1542 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 996,1542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(996,1542) = 6

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

GCF(996,1542) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6

LCM(996,1542) = ( 996 × 1542 ) / 6

LCM(996,1542) = 1535832 / 6

LCM(996,1542) = 255972


Lets's calculate GCF of 400,639

∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 255972/1

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 996/400,1542/639 is 255972
