Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 402/70, 996/7478 quickly i.e. 33366 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 402/70, 996/7478 is 33366.
LCM(402/70, 996/7478) = 33366
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 402/70,996/7478
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 402,996
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 402,996 is 66732.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 70,7478 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 70,7478 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 402,996
2 | 402, 996 |
3 | 201, 498 |
67, 166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 67 x 166 = 66732
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 402,996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(402,996) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(402,996) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(402,996) = ( 402 × 996 ) / 6
LCM(402,996) = 400392 / 6
LCM(402,996) = 66732
Lets's calculate GCF of 70,7478
2 | 70, 7478 |
35, 3739 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 66732/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 402/70,996/7478 is 33366
