Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 1742/66, 5979/688 quickly i.e. 5207709 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1742/66, 5979/688 is 5207709.
LCM(1742/66, 5979/688) = 5207709
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 1742/66,5979/688
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 1742,5979
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 1742,5979 is 10415418.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 66,688 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 66,688 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1742,5979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10415418
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 1742,5979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1742,5979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1742,5979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1742,5979) = ( 1742 × 5979 ) / 1
LCM(1742,5979) = 10415418 / 1
LCM(1742,5979) = 10415418
Lets's calculate GCF of 66,688
2 | 66, 688 |
33, 344 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 10415418/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 1742/66,5979/688 is 5207709
