Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 3612/637, 2138/154 quickly i.e. 551604 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3612/637, 2138/154 is 551604.
LCM(3612/637, 2138/154) = 551604
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 3612/637,2138/154
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 3612,2138
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3612,2138 is 3861228.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 637,154 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 637,154 is 7 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3612,2138
2 | 3612, 2138 |
1806, 1069 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 1806 x 1069 = 3861228
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 3612,2138 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3612,2138) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3612,2138) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(3612,2138) = ( 3612 × 2138 ) / 2
LCM(3612,2138) = 7722456 / 2
LCM(3612,2138) = 3861228
Lets's calculate GCF of 637,154
7 | 637, 154 |
91, 22 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 3861228/7
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3612/637,2138/154 is 551604
