Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 37/172, 314/658, 159/363 quickly i.e. 1847262 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 37/172, 314/658, 159/363 is 1847262.
LCM(37/172, 314/658, 159/363) = 1847262
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 37/172,314/658,159/363
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 37,314,159
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 37,314,159 is 1847262.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 172,658,363 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 172,658,363 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,314,159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1847262
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 37,314,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,314,159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,314,159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,314,159) = ( 37 × 314 × 159 ) / 1
LCM(37,314,159) = 1847262 / 1
LCM(37,314,159) = 1847262
Lets's calculate GCF of 172,658,363
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1847262/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 37/172,314/658,159/363 is 1847262
