Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 1328/288, 2628/486 quickly i.e. 48472 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1328/288, 2628/486 is 48472.
LCM(1328/288, 2628/486) = 48472
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 1328/288,2628/486
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 1328,2628
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 1328,2628 is 872496.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 288,486 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 288,486 is 18 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1328,2628
2 | 1328, 2628 |
2 | 664, 1314 |
332, 657 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 332 x 657 = 872496
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 1328,2628 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1328,2628) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1328,2628) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(1328,2628) = ( 1328 × 2628 ) / 4
LCM(1328,2628) = 3489984 / 4
LCM(1328,2628) = 872496
Lets's calculate GCF of 288,486
2 | 288, 486 |
3 | 144, 243 |
3 | 48, 81 |
16, 27 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 = 18
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 872496/18
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 1328/288,2628/486 is 48472
