Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 249/591, 4187/162 quickly i.e. 347521 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 249/591, 4187/162 is 347521.
LCM(249/591, 4187/162) = 347521
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 249/591,4187/162
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 249,4187
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 249,4187 is 1042563.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 591,162 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 591,162 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 249,4187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1042563
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 249,4187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(249,4187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(249,4187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(249,4187) = ( 249 × 4187 ) / 1
LCM(249,4187) = 1042563 / 1
LCM(249,4187) = 1042563
Lets's calculate GCF of 591,162
3 | 591, 162 |
197, 54 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1042563/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 249/591,4187/162 is 347521
