Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 3642/308, 4888/976 quickly i.e. 2225262 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3642/308, 4888/976 is 2225262.
LCM(3642/308, 4888/976) = 2225262
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 3642/308,4888/976
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 3642,4888
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3642,4888 is 8901048.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 308,976 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 308,976 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3642,4888
2 | 3642, 4888 |
1821, 2444 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 1821 x 2444 = 8901048
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 3642,4888 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3642,4888) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3642,4888) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(3642,4888) = ( 3642 × 4888 ) / 2
LCM(3642,4888) = 17802096 / 2
LCM(3642,4888) = 8901048
Lets's calculate GCF of 308,976
2 | 308, 976 |
2 | 154, 488 |
77, 244 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 8901048/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3642/308,4888/976 is 2225262
