Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 166/80, 720/2876 quickly i.e. 14940 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 166/80, 720/2876 is 14940.
LCM(166/80, 720/2876) = 14940
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 166/80,720/2876
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 166,720
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 166,720 is 59760.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 80,2876 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 80,2876 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 166,720
2 | 166, 720 |
83, 360 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 83 x 360 = 59760
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 166,720 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(166,720) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(166,720) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(166,720) = ( 166 × 720 ) / 2
LCM(166,720) = 119520 / 2
LCM(166,720) = 59760
Lets's calculate GCF of 80,2876
2 | 80, 2876 |
2 | 40, 1438 |
20, 719 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 59760/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 166/80,720/2876 is 14940
