Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 149/36, 852/3168 quickly i.e. 126948/36 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 149/36, 852/3168 is 126948/36.
LCM(149/36, 852/3168) = 126948/36
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 149/36,852/3168
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 149,852
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 149,852 is 126948.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 36,3168 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 36,3168 is 36 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 149,852
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 126948
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 149,852 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(149,852) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(149,852) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(149,852) = ( 149 × 852 ) / 1
LCM(149,852) = 126948 / 1
LCM(149,852) = 126948
Lets's calculate GCF of 36,3168
2 | 36, 3168 |
2 | 18, 1584 |
3 | 9, 792 |
3 | 3, 264 |
1, 88 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 36
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 126948/36
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 149/36,852/3168 is 126948/36
