Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 268/42, 771/8591 quickly i.e. 206628 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 268/42, 771/8591 is 206628.
LCM(268/42, 771/8591) = 206628
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 268/42,771/8591
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 268,771
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 268,771 is 206628.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,8591 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 42,8591 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 268,771
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 206628
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 268,771 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(268,771) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(268,771) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(268,771) = ( 268 × 771 ) / 1
LCM(268,771) = 206628 / 1
LCM(268,771) = 206628
Lets's calculate GCF of 42,8591
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 206628/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 268/42,771/8591 is 206628
