Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 291/458, 512/116 quickly i.e. 74496 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 291/458, 512/116 is 74496.
LCM(291/458, 512/116) = 74496
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 291/458,512/116
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 291,512
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 291,512 is 148992.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 458,116 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 458,116 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 291,512
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 148992
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 291,512 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(291,512) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(291,512) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(291,512) = ( 291 × 512 ) / 1
LCM(291,512) = 148992 / 1
LCM(291,512) = 148992
Lets's calculate GCF of 458,116
2 | 458, 116 |
229, 58 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 148992/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 291/458,512/116 is 74496
