Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 38/72, 330/84, 296/471 quickly i.e. 309320 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 38/72, 330/84, 296/471 is 309320.
LCM(38/72, 330/84, 296/471) = 309320
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 38/72,330/84,296/471
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 38,330,296
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 38,330,296 is 927960.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 72,84,471 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 72,84,471 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,330,296
2 | 38, 330, 296 |
19, 165, 148 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 165 x 148 = 927960
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 38,330,296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,330,296) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(38,330,296) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(38,330,296) = ( 38 × 330 × 296 ) / 4
LCM(38,330,296) = 3711840 / 4
LCM(38,330,296) = 927960
Lets's calculate GCF of 72,84,471
3 | 72, 84, 471 |
24, 28, 157 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 927960/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 38/72,330/84,296/471 is 309320
