Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 376/973, 3084/4942 quickly i.e. 289896/7 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 376/973, 3084/4942 is 289896/7.
LCM(376/973, 3084/4942) = 289896/7
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 376/973,3084/4942
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 376,3084
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 376,3084 is 289896.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 973,4942 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 973,4942 is 7 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 376,3084
2 | 376, 3084 |
2 | 188, 1542 |
94, 771 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 94 x 771 = 289896
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 376,3084 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(376,3084) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(376,3084) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(376,3084) = ( 376 × 3084 ) / 4
LCM(376,3084) = 1159584 / 4
LCM(376,3084) = 289896
Lets's calculate GCF of 973,4942
7 | 973, 4942 |
139, 706 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 289896/7
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 376/973,3084/4942 is 289896/7
