Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 2977/84, 2981/873 quickly i.e. 8874437/3 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2977/84, 2981/873 is 8874437/3.
LCM(2977/84, 2981/873) = 8874437/3
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 2977/84,2981/873
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 2977,2981
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 2977,2981 is 8874437.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 84,873 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 84,873 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2977,2981
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8874437
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 2977,2981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2977,2981) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2977,2981) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(2977,2981) = ( 2977 × 2981 ) / 1
LCM(2977,2981) = 8874437 / 1
LCM(2977,2981) = 8874437
Lets's calculate GCF of 84,873
3 | 84, 873 |
28, 291 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 8874437/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 2977/84,2981/873 is 8874437/3
