Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 14/20, 47/14, 487/856 quickly i.e. 160223 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 14/20, 47/14, 487/856 is 160223.
LCM(14/20, 47/14, 487/856) = 160223
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 14/20,47/14,487/856
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 14,47,487
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 14,47,487 is 320446.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 20,14,856 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 20,14,856 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,47,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 320446
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 14,47,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,47,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,47,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(14,47,487) = ( 14 × 47 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(14,47,487) = 320446 / 1
LCM(14,47,487) = 320446
Lets's calculate GCF of 20,14,856
2 | 20, 14, 856 |
10, 7, 428 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 320446/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 14/20,47/14,487/856 is 160223
