Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 2957/762, 1748/318 quickly i.e. 5168836/6 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2957/762, 1748/318 is 5168836/6.
LCM(2957/762, 1748/318) = 5168836/6
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 2957/762,1748/318
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 2957,1748
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 2957,1748 is 5168836.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 762,318 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 762,318 is 6 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2957,1748
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5168836
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 2957,1748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2957,1748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2957,1748) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(2957,1748) = ( 2957 × 1748 ) / 1
LCM(2957,1748) = 5168836 / 1
LCM(2957,1748) = 5168836
Lets's calculate GCF of 762,318
2 | 762, 318 |
3 | 381, 159 |
127, 53 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 5168836/6
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 2957/762,1748/318 is 5168836/6
