Lowest Common Multiple of 73,280 using Common Division

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20440

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20440

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 978/73,971/280 is 1/20440

Least Common Multiple of 73,280 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 73,280 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 73,280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(73,280) = 1

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

GCF(73,280) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(73,280) = ( 73 × 280 ) / 1

LCM(73,280) = 20440 / 1

LCM(73,280) = 20440
