Least Common Multiple of 996/78,520/165

Given numbers are 996/78,520/165

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 996,520

Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 996,520 is 129480.

GCF of Denominators means GCF of 78,165 as per the given fractions.

GCF of 78,165 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.

Lets's calculate LCM of 996,520

LCM of Fractions 996/78,520/165 is 43160

2 996, 520
2 498, 260
249, 130

∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 249 x 130 = 129480

Least Common Multiple of 996,520 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 996,520 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 996,520 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(996,520) = 4

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

GCF(996,520) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4

LCM(996,520) = ( 996 × 520 ) / 4

LCM(996,520) = 517920 / 4

LCM(996,520) = 129480


Lets's calculate GCF of 78,165

3 78, 165
26, 55

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 129480/3

Therefore the LCM of Fractions 996/78,520/165 is 43160
