LCM of 16/263, 9978/8865
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 16/263,9978/8865
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 16,9978
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 16,9978 is 79824.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 263,8865 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 263,8865 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,9978
LCM of Fractions 16/263,9978/8865 is 79824
| 2 | 16, 9978 |
| 8, 4989 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 8 x 4989 = 79824
Least Common Multiple of 16,9978 with GCF Formula
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 16,9978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,9978) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,9978) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(16,9978) = ( 16 × 9978 ) / 2
LCM(16,9978) = 159648 / 2
LCM(16,9978) = 79824
Lets's calculate GCF of 263,8865
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 79824/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 16/263,9978/8865 is 79824
