Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 3174/718, 5717/956 quickly i.e. 9072879 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3174/718, 5717/956 is 9072879.
LCM(3174/718, 5717/956) = 9072879
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 3174/718,5717/956
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 3174,5717
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3174,5717 is 18145758.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 718,956 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 718,956 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3174,5717
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 18145758
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 3174,5717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3174,5717) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3174,5717) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(3174,5717) = ( 3174 × 5717 ) / 1
LCM(3174,5717) = 18145758 / 1
LCM(3174,5717) = 18145758
Lets's calculate GCF of 718,956
2 | 718, 956 |
359, 478 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 18145758/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3174/718,5717/956 is 9072879
