Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 120/268, 1995/108 quickly i.e. 3990 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 120/268, 1995/108 is 3990.
LCM(120/268, 1995/108) = 3990
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 120/268,1995/108
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 120,1995
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 120,1995 is 15960.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 268,108 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 268,108 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 120,1995
3 | 120, 1995 |
5 | 40, 665 |
8, 133 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 8 x 133 = 15960
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 120,1995 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(120,1995) = 15
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(120,1995) x common factors =15 x 1 = 15
LCM(120,1995) = ( 120 × 1995 ) / 15
LCM(120,1995) = 239400 / 15
LCM(120,1995) = 15960
Lets's calculate GCF of 268,108
2 | 268, 108 |
2 | 134, 54 |
67, 27 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 15960/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 120/268,1995/108 is 3990
