Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 38/424, 7562/4640 quickly i.e. 7562/8 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 38/424, 7562/4640 is 7562/8.
LCM(38/424, 7562/4640) = 7562/8
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 38/424,7562/4640
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 38,7562
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 38,7562 is 7562.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 424,4640 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 424,4640 is 8 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,7562
2 | 38, 7562 |
19 | 19, 3781 |
1, 199 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 1 x 199 = 7562
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 38,7562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,7562) = 38
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(38,7562) x common factors =38 x 1 = 38
LCM(38,7562) = ( 38 × 7562 ) / 38
LCM(38,7562) = 287356 / 38
LCM(38,7562) = 7562
Lets's calculate GCF of 424,4640
2 | 424, 4640 |
2 | 212, 2320 |
2 | 106, 1160 |
53, 580 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 7562/8
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 38/424,7562/4640 is 7562/8
