Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 1557/659, 2478/991 quickly i.e. 1286082 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1557/659, 2478/991 is 1286082.
LCM(1557/659, 2478/991) = 1286082
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 1557/659,2478/991
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 1557,2478
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 1557,2478 is 1286082.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 659,991 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 659,991 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1557,2478
3 | 1557, 2478 |
519, 826 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 519 x 826 = 1286082
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 1557,2478 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1557,2478) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1557,2478) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(1557,2478) = ( 1557 × 2478 ) / 3
LCM(1557,2478) = 3858246 / 3
LCM(1557,2478) = 1286082
Lets's calculate GCF of 659,991
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1286082/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 1557/659,2478/991 is 1286082
