Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 132/56, 958/7428 quickly i.e. 15807 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 132/56, 958/7428 is 15807.
LCM(132/56, 958/7428) = 15807
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 132/56,958/7428
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 132,958
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 132,958 is 63228.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 56,7428 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 56,7428 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 132,958
2 | 132, 958 |
66, 479 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 66 x 479 = 63228
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 132,958 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(132,958) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(132,958) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(132,958) = ( 132 × 958 ) / 2
LCM(132,958) = 126456 / 2
LCM(132,958) = 63228
Lets's calculate GCF of 56,7428
2 | 56, 7428 |
2 | 28, 3714 |
14, 1857 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 63228/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 132/56,958/7428 is 15807
