Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 258/16, 388/5260 quickly i.e. 12513 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 258/16, 388/5260 is 12513.
LCM(258/16, 388/5260) = 12513
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 258/16,388/5260
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 258,388
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 258,388 is 50052.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 16,5260 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 16,5260 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 258,388
2 | 258, 388 |
129, 194 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 129 x 194 = 50052
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 258,388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(258,388) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(258,388) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(258,388) = ( 258 × 388 ) / 2
LCM(258,388) = 100104 / 2
LCM(258,388) = 50052
Lets's calculate GCF of 16,5260
2 | 16, 5260 |
2 | 8, 2630 |
4, 1315 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 50052/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 258/16,388/5260 is 12513
