Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 256/742, 2189/746 quickly i.e. 280192 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 256/742, 2189/746 is 280192.
LCM(256/742, 2189/746) = 280192
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 256/742,2189/746
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 256,2189
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 256,2189 is 560384.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 742,746 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 742,746 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 256,2189
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 560384
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 256,2189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,2189) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,2189) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,2189) = ( 256 × 2189 ) / 1
LCM(256,2189) = 560384 / 1
LCM(256,2189) = 560384
Lets's calculate GCF of 742,746
2 | 742, 746 |
371, 373 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 560384/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 256/742,2189/746 is 280192
