Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 37/536, 44/162, 272/482 quickly i.e. 55352 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 37/536, 44/162, 272/482 is 55352.
LCM(37/536, 44/162, 272/482) = 55352
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 37/536,44/162,272/482
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 37,44,272
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 37,44,272 is 110704.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 536,162,482 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 536,162,482 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,44,272
2 | 37, 44, 272 |
2 | 37, 22, 136 |
37, 11, 68 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 37 x 11 x 68 = 110704
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 37,44,272 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,44,272) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(37,44,272) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(37,44,272) = ( 37 × 44 × 272 ) / 4
LCM(37,44,272) = 442816 / 4
LCM(37,44,272) = 110704
Lets's calculate GCF of 536,162,482
2 | 536, 162, 482 |
268, 81, 241 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 110704/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 37/536,44/162,272/482 is 55352
