Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 259/704, 784/860 quickly i.e. 7252 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 259/704, 784/860 is 7252.
LCM(259/704, 784/860) = 7252
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 259/704,784/860
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 259,784
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 259,784 is 29008.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 704,860 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 704,860 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 259,784
7 | 259, 784 |
37, 112 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 37 x 112 = 29008
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 259,784 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(259,784) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(259,784) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(259,784) = ( 259 × 784 ) / 7
LCM(259,784) = 203056 / 7
LCM(259,784) = 29008
Lets's calculate GCF of 704,860
2 | 704, 860 |
2 | 352, 430 |
176, 215 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 29008/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 259/704,784/860 is 7252
