Least Common Multiple of 1901 and 1916 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 1901 and 1916, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(1901,1916) = 1
LCM(1901,1916) = ( 1901 × 1916) / 1
LCM(1901,1916) = 3642316 / 1
LCM(1901,1916) = 3642316
