Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 268/472, 2397/233 quickly i.e. 642396 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 268/472, 2397/233 is 642396.
LCM(268/472, 2397/233) = 642396
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 268/472,2397/233
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 268,2397
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 268,2397 is 642396.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 472,233 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 472,233 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 268,2397
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 642396
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 268,2397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(268,2397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(268,2397) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(268,2397) = ( 268 × 2397 ) / 1
LCM(268,2397) = 642396 / 1
LCM(268,2397) = 642396
Lets's calculate GCF of 472,233
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 642396/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 268/472,2397/233 is 642396
