Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 159/190, 2973/479 quickly i.e. 157569 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 159/190, 2973/479 is 157569.
LCM(159/190, 2973/479) = 157569
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 159/190,2973/479
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 159,2973
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 159,2973 is 157569.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 190,479 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 190,479 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 159,2973
3 | 159, 2973 |
53, 991 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 53 x 991 = 157569
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 159,2973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,2973) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,2973) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(159,2973) = ( 159 × 2973 ) / 3
LCM(159,2973) = 472707 / 3
LCM(159,2973) = 157569
Lets's calculate GCF of 190,479
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 157569/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 159/190,2973/479 is 157569
