Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 1000/288, 1440/864 quickly i.e. 125 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1000/288, 1440/864 is 125.
LCM(1000/288, 1440/864) = 125
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 1000/288,1440/864
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 1000,1440
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 1000,1440 is 36000.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 288,864 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 288,864 is 288 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1000,1440
2 | 1000, 1440 |
2 | 500, 720 |
2 | 250, 360 |
5 | 125, 180 |
25, 36 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 25 x 36 = 36000
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 1000,1440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1000,1440) = 40
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1000,1440) x common factors =40 x 1 = 40
LCM(1000,1440) = ( 1000 × 1440 ) / 40
LCM(1000,1440) = 1440000 / 40
LCM(1000,1440) = 36000
Lets's calculate GCF of 288,864
2 | 288, 864 |
2 | 144, 432 |
2 | 72, 216 |
2 | 36, 108 |
2 | 18, 54 |
3 | 9, 27 |
3 | 3, 9 |
1, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 288
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 36000/288
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 1000/288,1440/864 is 125
