Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 3174/742, 1546/8836 quickly i.e. 1226751 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3174/742, 1546/8836 is 1226751.
LCM(3174/742, 1546/8836) = 1226751
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 3174/742,1546/8836
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 3174,1546
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3174,1546 is 2453502.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 742,8836 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 742,8836 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3174,1546
2 | 3174, 1546 |
1587, 773 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 1587 x 773 = 2453502
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 3174,1546 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3174,1546) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3174,1546) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(3174,1546) = ( 3174 × 1546 ) / 2
LCM(3174,1546) = 4907004 / 2
LCM(3174,1546) = 2453502
Lets's calculate GCF of 742,8836
2 | 742, 8836 |
371, 4418 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2453502/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3174/742,1546/8836 is 1226751
