Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 3208/636, 6008/1989 quickly i.e. 2409208/3 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3208/636, 6008/1989 is 2409208/3.
LCM(3208/636, 6008/1989) = 2409208/3
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 3208/636,6008/1989
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 3208,6008
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3208,6008 is 2409208.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 636,1989 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 636,1989 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3208,6008
2 | 3208, 6008 |
2 | 1604, 3004 |
2 | 802, 1502 |
401, 751 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 401 x 751 = 2409208
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 3208,6008 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3208,6008) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3208,6008) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(3208,6008) = ( 3208 × 6008 ) / 8
LCM(3208,6008) = 19273664 / 8
LCM(3208,6008) = 2409208
Lets's calculate GCF of 636,1989
3 | 636, 1989 |
212, 663 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2409208/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3208/636,6008/1989 is 2409208/3
