Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 120/164, 5968/676 quickly i.e. 22380 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 120/164, 5968/676 is 22380.
LCM(120/164, 5968/676) = 22380
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 120/164,5968/676
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 120,5968
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 120,5968 is 89520.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 164,676 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 164,676 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 120,5968
2 | 120, 5968 |
2 | 60, 2984 |
2 | 30, 1492 |
15, 746 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 15 x 746 = 89520
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 120,5968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(120,5968) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(120,5968) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(120,5968) = ( 120 × 5968 ) / 8
LCM(120,5968) = 716160 / 8
LCM(120,5968) = 89520
Lets's calculate GCF of 164,676
2 | 164, 676 |
2 | 82, 338 |
41, 169 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 89520/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 120/164,5968/676 is 22380
