Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 24/20, 28/72, 892/222 quickly i.e. 18732 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 24/20, 28/72, 892/222 is 18732.
LCM(24/20, 28/72, 892/222) = 18732
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 24/20,28/72,892/222
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 24,28,892
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 24,28,892 is 37464.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 20,72,222 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 20,72,222 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,28,892
2 | 24, 28, 892 |
2 | 12, 14, 446 |
6, 7, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 6 x 7 x 223 = 37464
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 24,28,892 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,28,892) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(24,28,892) x common factors =4 x 4 = 16
LCM(24,28,892) = ( 24 × 28 × 892 ) / 16
LCM(24,28,892) = 599424 / 16
LCM(24,28,892) = 37464
Lets's calculate GCF of 20,72,222
2 | 20, 72, 222 |
10, 36, 111 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 37464/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 24/20,28/72,892/222 is 18732
