Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 216/42, 321/4780 quickly i.e. 11556 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 216/42, 321/4780 is 11556.
LCM(216/42, 321/4780) = 11556
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 216/42,321/4780
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 216,321
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 216,321 is 23112.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,4780 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 42,4780 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 216,321
3 | 216, 321 |
72, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 72 x 107 = 23112
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 216,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(216,321) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(216,321) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(216,321) = ( 216 × 321 ) / 3
LCM(216,321) = 69336 / 3
LCM(216,321) = 23112
Lets's calculate GCF of 42,4780
2 | 42, 4780 |
21, 2390 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 23112/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 216/42,321/4780 is 11556
