Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 2991/901, 7470/493 quickly i.e. 7447590/17 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2991/901, 7470/493 is 7447590/17.
LCM(2991/901, 7470/493) = 7447590/17
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 2991/901,7470/493
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 2991,7470
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 2991,7470 is 7447590.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 901,493 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 901,493 is 17 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2991,7470
3 | 2991, 7470 |
997, 2490 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 997 x 2490 = 7447590
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 2991,7470 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2991,7470) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2991,7470) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(2991,7470) = ( 2991 × 7470 ) / 3
LCM(2991,7470) = 22342770 / 3
LCM(2991,7470) = 7447590
Lets's calculate GCF of 901,493
17 | 901, 493 |
53, 29 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 17 = 17
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 7447590/17
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 2991/901,7470/493 is 7447590/17
