Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 397/342, 475/557 quickly i.e. 188575 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 397/342, 475/557 is 188575.
LCM(397/342, 475/557) = 188575
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 397/342,475/557
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 397,475
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 397,475 is 188575.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 342,557 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 342,557 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 397,475
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 188575
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 397,475 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,475) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,475) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,475) = ( 397 × 475 ) / 1
LCM(397,475) = 188575 / 1
LCM(397,475) = 188575
Lets's calculate GCF of 342,557
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 188575/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 397/342,475/557 is 188575
