Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 342/527, 491/744 quickly i.e. 167922/31 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 342/527, 491/744 is 167922/31.
LCM(342/527, 491/744) = 167922/31
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 342/527,491/744
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 342,491
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 342,491 is 167922.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 527,744 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 527,744 is 31 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 342,491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 167922
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 342,491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(342,491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(342,491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(342,491) = ( 342 × 491 ) / 1
LCM(342,491) = 167922 / 1
LCM(342,491) = 167922
Lets's calculate GCF of 527,744
31 | 527, 744 |
17, 24 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 31 = 31
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 167922/31
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 342/527,491/744 is 167922/31
