Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 226/494, 8856/999 quickly i.e. 1000728 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 226/494, 8856/999 is 1000728.
LCM(226/494, 8856/999) = 1000728
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 226/494,8856/999
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 226,8856
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 226,8856 is 1000728.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 494,999 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 494,999 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 226,8856
2 | 226, 8856 |
113, 4428 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 113 x 4428 = 1000728
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 226,8856 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(226,8856) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(226,8856) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(226,8856) = ( 226 × 8856 ) / 2
LCM(226,8856) = 2001456 / 2
LCM(226,8856) = 1000728
Lets's calculate GCF of 494,999
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1000728/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 226/494,8856/999 is 1000728
