Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 156/18, 144/6274 quickly i.e. 936 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 156/18, 144/6274 is 936.
LCM(156/18, 144/6274) = 936
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 156/18,144/6274
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 156,144
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 156,144 is 1872.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 18,6274 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 18,6274 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 156,144
2 | 156, 144 |
2 | 78, 72 |
3 | 39, 36 |
13, 12 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 13 x 12 = 1872
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 156,144 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(156,144) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(156,144) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(156,144) = ( 156 × 144 ) / 12
LCM(156,144) = 22464 / 12
LCM(156,144) = 1872
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,6274
2 | 18, 6274 |
9, 3137 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1872/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 156/18,144/6274 is 936
