Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 40/226, 8256/1048 quickly i.e. 20640 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 40/226, 8256/1048 is 20640.
LCM(40/226, 8256/1048) = 20640
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 40/226,8256/1048
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 40,8256
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 40,8256 is 41280.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 226,1048 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 226,1048 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,8256
2 | 40, 8256 |
2 | 20, 4128 |
2 | 10, 2064 |
5, 1032 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 1032 = 41280
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 40,8256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,8256) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,8256) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(40,8256) = ( 40 × 8256 ) / 8
LCM(40,8256) = 330240 / 8
LCM(40,8256) = 41280
Lets's calculate GCF of 226,1048
2 | 226, 1048 |
113, 524 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 41280/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 40/226,8256/1048 is 20640
