Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 170/678, 557/178 quickly i.e. 47345 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 170/678, 557/178 is 47345.
LCM(170/678, 557/178) = 47345
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 170/678,557/178
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 170,557
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 170,557 is 94690.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 678,178 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 678,178 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 170,557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 94690
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 170,557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(170,557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(170,557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(170,557) = ( 170 × 557 ) / 1
LCM(170,557) = 94690 / 1
LCM(170,557) = 94690
Lets's calculate GCF of 678,178
2 | 678, 178 |
339, 89 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 94690/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 170/678,557/178 is 47345
