Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 422/640, 9173/4608 quickly i.e. 3871006/128 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 422/640, 9173/4608 is 3871006/128.
LCM(422/640, 9173/4608) = 3871006/128
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 422/640,9173/4608
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 422,9173
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 422,9173 is 3871006.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 640,4608 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 640,4608 is 128 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 422,9173
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3871006
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 422,9173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(422,9173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(422,9173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(422,9173) = ( 422 × 9173 ) / 1
LCM(422,9173) = 3871006 / 1
LCM(422,9173) = 3871006
Lets's calculate GCF of 640,4608
2 | 640, 4608 |
2 | 320, 2304 |
2 | 160, 1152 |
2 | 80, 576 |
2 | 40, 288 |
2 | 20, 144 |
2 | 10, 72 |
5, 36 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 128
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 3871006/128
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 422/640,9173/4608 is 3871006/128
