Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 232/87, 375/40, 100/456 quickly i.e. 87000 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 232/87, 375/40, 100/456 is 87000.
LCM(232/87, 375/40, 100/456) = 87000
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 232/87,375/40,100/456
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 232,375,100
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 232,375,100 is 87000.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 87,40,456 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 87,40,456 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 232,375,100
2 | 232, 375, 100 |
2 | 116, 375, 50 |
5 | 58, 375, 25 |
5 | 58, 75, 5 |
58, 15, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 58 x 15 x 1 = 87000
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 232,375,100 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,375,100) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 100
GCF(232,375,100) x common factors =1 x 100 = 100
LCM(232,375,100) = ( 232 × 375 × 100 ) / 100
LCM(232,375,100) = 8700000 / 100
LCM(232,375,100) = 87000
Lets's calculate GCF of 87,40,456
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 87000/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 232/87,375/40,100/456 is 87000
