Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 396/336, 4520/6962 quickly i.e. 223740 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 396/336, 4520/6962 is 223740.
LCM(396/336, 4520/6962) = 223740
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 396/336,4520/6962
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 396,4520
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 396,4520 is 447480.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 336,6962 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 336,6962 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 396,4520
2 | 396, 4520 |
2 | 198, 2260 |
99, 1130 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 99 x 1130 = 447480
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 396,4520 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(396,4520) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(396,4520) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(396,4520) = ( 396 × 4520 ) / 4
LCM(396,4520) = 1789920 / 4
LCM(396,4520) = 447480
Lets's calculate GCF of 336,6962
2 | 336, 6962 |
168, 3481 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 447480/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 396/336,4520/6962 is 223740
