Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 162/54, 249/2248 quickly i.e. 6723 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 162/54, 249/2248 is 6723.
LCM(162/54, 249/2248) = 6723
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 162/54,249/2248
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 162,249
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 162,249 is 13446.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 54,2248 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 54,2248 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 162,249
3 | 162, 249 |
54, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 54 x 83 = 13446
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 162,249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(162,249) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(162,249) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(162,249) = ( 162 × 249 ) / 3
LCM(162,249) = 40338 / 3
LCM(162,249) = 13446
Lets's calculate GCF of 54,2248
2 | 54, 2248 |
27, 1124 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 13446/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 162/54,249/2248 is 6723
