Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 1/42, 47/64, 172/55 quickly i.e. 8084 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1/42, 47/64, 172/55 is 8084.
LCM(1/42, 47/64, 172/55) = 8084
LCM of 1/42, 47/64, 172/55
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 1/42,47/64,172/55
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 1,47,172
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 1,47,172 is 8084.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,64,55 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 42,64,55 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1,47,172
LCM of Fractions 1/42,47/64,172/55 is 8084
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8084
Least Common Multiple of 1,47,172 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 1,47,172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1,47,172) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1,47,172) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1,47,172) = ( 1 × 47 × 172 ) / 1
LCM(1,47,172) = 8084 / 1
LCM(1,47,172) = 8084
Lets's calculate GCF of 42,64,55
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 8084/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 1/42,47/64,172/55 is 8084
