Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 3978/516, 1943/831 quickly i.e. 2576418 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3978/516, 1943/831 is 2576418.
LCM(3978/516, 1943/831) = 2576418
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 3978/516,1943/831
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 3978,1943
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 3978,1943 is 7729254.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 516,831 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 516,831 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 3978,1943
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7729254
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 3978,1943 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(3978,1943) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(3978,1943) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(3978,1943) = ( 3978 × 1943 ) / 1
LCM(3978,1943) = 7729254 / 1
LCM(3978,1943) = 7729254
Lets's calculate GCF of 516,831
3 | 516, 831 |
172, 277 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 7729254/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 3978/516,1943/831 is 2576418
