Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 42/12, 73/836, 869/217 quickly i.e. 2664354 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 42/12, 73/836, 869/217 is 2664354.
LCM(42/12, 73/836, 869/217) = 2664354
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 42/12,73/836,869/217
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 42,73,869
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 42,73,869 is 2664354.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 12,836,217 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 12,836,217 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,73,869
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2664354
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 42,73,869 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,73,869) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,73,869) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(42,73,869) = ( 42 × 73 × 869 ) / 1
LCM(42,73,869) = 2664354 / 1
LCM(42,73,869) = 2664354
Lets's calculate GCF of 12,836,217
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2664354/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 42/12,73/836,869/217 is 2664354
