Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 2714/42, 6361/178 quickly i.e. 8631877 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2714/42, 6361/178 is 8631877.
LCM(2714/42, 6361/178) = 8631877
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 2714/42,6361/178
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 2714,6361
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 2714,6361 is 17263754.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 42,178 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 42,178 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2714,6361
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17263754
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 2714,6361 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2714,6361) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2714,6361) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(2714,6361) = ( 2714 × 6361 ) / 1
LCM(2714,6361) = 17263754 / 1
LCM(2714,6361) = 17263754
Lets's calculate GCF of 42,178
2 | 42, 178 |
21, 89 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 17263754/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 2714/42,6361/178 is 8631877
