Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 342/487, 4282/989 quickly i.e. 732222 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 342/487, 4282/989 is 732222.
LCM(342/487, 4282/989) = 732222
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 342/487,4282/989
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 342,4282
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 342,4282 is 732222.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 487,989 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 487,989 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 342,4282
2 | 342, 4282 |
171, 2141 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 171 x 2141 = 732222
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 342,4282 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(342,4282) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(342,4282) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(342,4282) = ( 342 × 4282 ) / 2
LCM(342,4282) = 1464444 / 2
LCM(342,4282) = 732222
Lets's calculate GCF of 487,989
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 732222/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 342/487,4282/989 is 732222
