Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 228/78, 237/29, 237/116 quickly i.e. 18012 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 228/78, 237/29, 237/116 is 18012.
LCM(228/78, 237/29, 237/116) = 18012
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 228/78,237/29,237/116
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 228,237,237
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 228,237,237 is 18012.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 78,29,116 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 78,29,116 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 228,237,237
3 | 228, 237, 237 |
79 | 76, 79, 79 |
76, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 79 x 76 x 1 x 1 = 18012
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 228,237,237 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(228,237,237) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 237
GCF(228,237,237) x common factors =3 x 237 = 711
LCM(228,237,237) = ( 228 × 237 × 237 ) / 711
LCM(228,237,237) = 12806532 / 711
LCM(228,237,237) = 18012
Lets's calculate GCF of 78,29,116
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 18012/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 228/78,237/29,237/116 is 18012
