Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 316/462, 7398/794 quickly i.e. 584442 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 316/462, 7398/794 is 584442.
LCM(316/462, 7398/794) = 584442
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 316/462,7398/794
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 316,7398
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 316,7398 is 1168884.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 462,794 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 462,794 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 316,7398
2 | 316, 7398 |
158, 3699 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 158 x 3699 = 1168884
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 316,7398 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(316,7398) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(316,7398) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(316,7398) = ( 316 × 7398 ) / 2
LCM(316,7398) = 2337768 / 2
LCM(316,7398) = 1168884
Lets's calculate GCF of 462,794
2 | 462, 794 |
231, 397 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1168884/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 316/462,7398/794 is 584442
