Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 1991/482, 4408/1542 quickly i.e. 4388164 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 1991/482, 4408/1542 is 4388164.
LCM(1991/482, 4408/1542) = 4388164
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 1991/482,4408/1542
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 1991,4408
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 1991,4408 is 8776328.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 482,1542 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 482,1542 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1991,4408
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8776328
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 1991,4408 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1991,4408) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1991,4408) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1991,4408) = ( 1991 × 4408 ) / 1
LCM(1991,4408) = 8776328 / 1
LCM(1991,4408) = 8776328
Lets's calculate GCF of 482,1542
2 | 482, 1542 |
241, 771 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 8776328/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 1991/482,4408/1542 is 4388164
