Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 32/36, 96/63, 76/72, 38/980 quickly i.e. 1824 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 32/36, 96/63, 76/72, 38/980 is 1824.
LCM(32/36, 96/63, 76/72, 38/980) = 1824
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 32/36,96/63,76/72,38/980
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 32,96,76,38
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 32,96,76,38 is 1824.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 36,63,72,980 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 36,63,72,980 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,96,76,38
2 | 32, 96, 76, 38 |
2 | 16, 48, 38, 19 |
2 | 8, 24, 19, 19 |
2 | 4, 12, 19, 19 |
2 | 2, 6, 19, 19 |
19 | 1, 3, 19, 19 |
1, 3, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 19 x 1 x 3 x 1 x 1 = 1824
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 32,96,76,38 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,96,76,38) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2432
GCF(32,96,76,38) x common factors =2 x 2432 = 4864
LCM(32,96,76,38) = ( 32 × 96 × 76 × 38 ) / 4864
LCM(32,96,76,38) = 8871936 / 4864
LCM(32,96,76,38) = 1824
Lets's calculate GCF of 36,63,72,980
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1824/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 32/36,96/63,76/72,38/980 is 1824
