Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 4218/12, 8880/849 quickly i.e. 56240 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4218/12, 8880/849 is 56240.
LCM(4218/12, 8880/849) = 56240
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 4218/12,8880/849
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 4218,8880
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 4218,8880 is 168720.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 12,849 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 12,849 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 4218,8880
2 | 4218, 8880 |
3 | 2109, 4440 |
37 | 703, 1480 |
19, 40 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 37 x 19 x 40 = 168720
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 4218,8880 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4218,8880) = 222
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4218,8880) x common factors =222 x 1 = 222
LCM(4218,8880) = ( 4218 × 8880 ) / 222
LCM(4218,8880) = 37455840 / 222
LCM(4218,8880) = 168720
Lets's calculate GCF of 12,849
3 | 12, 849 |
4, 283 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 168720/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 4218/12,8880/849 is 56240
