Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 159/18, 716/2224 quickly i.e. 56922 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 159/18, 716/2224 is 56922.
LCM(159/18, 716/2224) = 56922
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 159/18,716/2224
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 159,716
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 159,716 is 113844.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 18,2224 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 18,2224 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 159,716
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 113844
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 159,716 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,716) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,716) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(159,716) = ( 159 × 716 ) / 1
LCM(159,716) = 113844 / 1
LCM(159,716) = 113844
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,2224
2 | 18, 2224 |
9, 1112 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 113844/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 159/18,716/2224 is 56922
