Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 172/724, 8574/798 quickly i.e. 368682 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 172/724, 8574/798 is 368682.
LCM(172/724, 8574/798) = 368682
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 172/724,8574/798
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 172,8574
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 172,8574 is 737364.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 724,798 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 724,798 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 172,8574
2 | 172, 8574 |
86, 4287 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 86 x 4287 = 737364
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 172,8574 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(172,8574) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(172,8574) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(172,8574) = ( 172 × 8574 ) / 2
LCM(172,8574) = 1474728 / 2
LCM(172,8574) = 737364
Lets's calculate GCF of 724,798
2 | 724, 798 |
362, 399 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 737364/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 172/724,8574/798 is 368682
