Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 1973/940, 5538/636 quickly i.e. 10926474/4 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1973/940, 5538/636 is 10926474/4.
LCM(1973/940, 5538/636) = 10926474/4
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 1973/940,5538/636
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 1973,5538
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 1973,5538 is 10926474.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 940,636 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 940,636 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1973,5538
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10926474
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 1973,5538 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1973,5538) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1973,5538) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1973,5538) = ( 1973 × 5538 ) / 1
LCM(1973,5538) = 10926474 / 1
LCM(1973,5538) = 10926474
Lets's calculate GCF of 940,636
2 | 940, 636 |
2 | 470, 318 |
235, 159 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 10926474/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 1973/940,5538/636 is 10926474/4
