Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 15/56, 259/87, 424/398 quickly i.e. 1647240 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 15/56, 259/87, 424/398 is 1647240.
LCM(15/56, 259/87, 424/398) = 1647240
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 15/56,259/87,424/398
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 15,259,424
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 15,259,424 is 1647240.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 56,87,398 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 56,87,398 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,259,424
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1647240
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 15,259,424 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,259,424) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,259,424) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(15,259,424) = ( 15 × 259 × 424 ) / 1
LCM(15,259,424) = 1647240 / 1
LCM(15,259,424) = 1647240
Lets's calculate GCF of 56,87,398
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1647240/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 15/56,259/87,424/398 is 1647240
