Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 3964/686, 8742/8481 quickly i.e. 17326644 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3964/686, 8742/8481 is 17326644.
LCM(3964/686, 8742/8481) = 17326644
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 3964/686,8742/8481
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 3964,8742
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3964,8742 is 17326644.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 686,8481 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 686,8481 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3964,8742
2 | 3964, 8742 |
1982, 4371 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 1982 x 4371 = 17326644
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 3964,8742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3964,8742) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3964,8742) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(3964,8742) = ( 3964 × 8742 ) / 2
LCM(3964,8742) = 34653288 / 2
LCM(3964,8742) = 17326644
Lets's calculate GCF of 686,8481
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 17326644/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3964/686,8742/8481 is 17326644
