Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 2256/720, 5978/867 quickly i.e. 2247728 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2256/720, 5978/867 is 2247728.
LCM(2256/720, 5978/867) = 2247728
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 2256/720,5978/867
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 2256,5978
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 2256,5978 is 6743184.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 720,867 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 720,867 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2256,5978
2 | 2256, 5978 |
1128, 2989 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 1128 x 2989 = 6743184
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 2256,5978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2256,5978) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2256,5978) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(2256,5978) = ( 2256 × 5978 ) / 2
LCM(2256,5978) = 13486368 / 2
LCM(2256,5978) = 6743184
Lets's calculate GCF of 720,867
3 | 720, 867 |
240, 289 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 6743184/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 2256/720,5978/867 is 2247728
