Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 238/50, 746/14, 257/358 quickly i.e. 11407459 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 238/50, 746/14, 257/358 is 11407459.
LCM(238/50, 746/14, 257/358) = 11407459
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 238/50,746/14,257/358
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 238,746,257
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 238,746,257 is 22814918.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 50,14,358 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 50,14,358 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 238,746,257
2 | 238, 746, 257 |
119, 373, 257 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 119 x 373 x 257 = 22814918
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 238,746,257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,746,257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(238,746,257) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(238,746,257) = ( 238 × 746 × 257 ) / 2
LCM(238,746,257) = 45629836 / 2
LCM(238,746,257) = 22814918
Lets's calculate GCF of 50,14,358
2 | 50, 14, 358 |
25, 7, 179 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 22814918/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 238/50,746/14,257/358 is 11407459
