Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 253/76, 491/5008 quickly i.e. 124223/4 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 253/76, 491/5008 is 124223/4.
LCM(253/76, 491/5008) = 124223/4
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 253/76,491/5008
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 253,491
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 253,491 is 124223.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 76,5008 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 76,5008 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 253,491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 124223
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 253,491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,491) = ( 253 × 491 ) / 1
LCM(253,491) = 124223 / 1
LCM(253,491) = 124223
Lets's calculate GCF of 76,5008
2 | 76, 5008 |
2 | 38, 2504 |
19, 1252 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 124223/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 253/76,491/5008 is 124223/4
