Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 150/170, 242/350 quickly i.e. 1815 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 150/170, 242/350 is 1815.
LCM(150/170, 242/350) = 1815
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 150/170,242/350
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 150,242
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 150,242 is 18150.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 170,350 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 170,350 is 10 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 150,242
2 | 150, 242 |
75, 121 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 75 x 121 = 18150
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 150,242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(150,242) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(150,242) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(150,242) = ( 150 × 242 ) / 2
LCM(150,242) = 36300 / 2
LCM(150,242) = 18150
Lets's calculate GCF of 170,350
2 | 170, 350 |
5 | 85, 175 |
17, 35 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 18150/10
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 150/170,242/350 is 1815
