Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 189/32, 294/4472 quickly i.e. 2646/8 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 189/32, 294/4472 is 2646/8.
LCM(189/32, 294/4472) = 2646/8
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 189/32,294/4472
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 189,294
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 189,294 is 2646.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 32,4472 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 32,4472 is 8 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 189,294
3 | 189, 294 |
7 | 63, 98 |
9, 14 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 9 x 14 = 2646
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 189,294 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,294) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,294) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(189,294) = ( 189 × 294 ) / 21
LCM(189,294) = 55566 / 21
LCM(189,294) = 2646
Lets's calculate GCF of 32,4472
2 | 32, 4472 |
2 | 16, 2236 |
2 | 8, 1118 |
4, 559 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2646/8
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 189/32,294/4472 is 2646/8
