Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 261/74, 163/33, 787/492 quickly i.e. 33481341 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 261/74, 163/33, 787/492 is 33481341.
LCM(261/74, 163/33, 787/492) = 33481341
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 261/74,163/33,787/492
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 261,163,787
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 261,163,787 is 33481341.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 74,33,492 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 74,33,492 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 261,163,787
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33481341
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 261,163,787 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,163,787) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,163,787) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(261,163,787) = ( 261 × 163 × 787 ) / 1
LCM(261,163,787) = 33481341 / 1
LCM(261,163,787) = 33481341
Lets's calculate GCF of 74,33,492
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 33481341/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 261/74,163/33,787/492 is 33481341
