Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 212/860, 271/344 quickly i.e. 57452/172 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 212/860, 271/344 is 57452/172.
LCM(212/860, 271/344) = 57452/172
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 212/860,271/344
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 212,271
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 212,271 is 57452.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 860,344 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 860,344 is 172 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 212,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 57452
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 212,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(212,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(212,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(212,271) = ( 212 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(212,271) = 57452 / 1
LCM(212,271) = 57452
Lets's calculate GCF of 860,344
2 | 860, 344 |
2 | 430, 172 |
43 | 215, 86 |
5, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 43 = 172
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 57452/172
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 212/860,271/344 is 57452/172
