Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 118/488, 984/364 quickly i.e. 14514 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 118/488, 984/364 is 14514.
LCM(118/488, 984/364) = 14514
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 118/488,984/364
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 118,984
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 118,984 is 58056.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 488,364 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 488,364 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 118,984
2 | 118, 984 |
59, 492 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 492 = 58056
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 118,984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(118,984) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(118,984) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(118,984) = ( 118 × 984 ) / 2
LCM(118,984) = 116112 / 2
LCM(118,984) = 58056
Lets's calculate GCF of 488,364
2 | 488, 364 |
2 | 244, 182 |
122, 91 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 58056/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 118/488,984/364 is 14514
