Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 223/420, 2124/140 quickly i.e. 473652/140 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 223/420, 2124/140 is 473652/140.
LCM(223/420, 2124/140) = 473652/140
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 223/420,2124/140
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 223,2124
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 223,2124 is 473652.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 420,140 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 420,140 is 140 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 223,2124
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 473652
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 223,2124 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(223,2124) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(223,2124) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(223,2124) = ( 223 × 2124 ) / 1
LCM(223,2124) = 473652 / 1
LCM(223,2124) = 473652
Lets's calculate GCF of 420,140
2 | 420, 140 |
2 | 210, 70 |
5 | 105, 35 |
7 | 21, 7 |
3, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 = 140
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 473652/140
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 223/420,2124/140 is 473652/140
