Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 36/506, 12/236, 918/870 quickly i.e. 918 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 36/506, 12/236, 918/870 is 918.
LCM(36/506, 12/236, 918/870) = 918
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 36/506,12/236,918/870
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 36,12,918
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 36,12,918 is 1836.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 506,236,870 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 506,236,870 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,12,918
2 | 36, 12, 918 |
2 | 18, 6, 459 |
3 | 9, 3, 459 |
3 | 1, 3, 153 |
1, 1, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 1 x 1 x 51 = 1836
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 36,12,918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,12,918) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 36
GCF(36,12,918) x common factors =6 x 36 = 216
LCM(36,12,918) = ( 36 × 12 × 918 ) / 216
LCM(36,12,918) = 396576 / 216
LCM(36,12,918) = 1836
Lets's calculate GCF of 506,236,870
2 | 506, 236, 870 |
253, 118, 435 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1836/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 36/506,12/236,918/870 is 918
