Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 4237/72, 6176/249 quickly i.e. 26167712/3 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4237/72, 6176/249 is 26167712/3.
LCM(4237/72, 6176/249) = 26167712/3
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 4237/72,6176/249
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 4237,6176
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 4237,6176 is 26167712.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 72,249 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 72,249 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 4237,6176
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26167712
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 4237,6176 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4237,6176) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4237,6176) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(4237,6176) = ( 4237 × 6176 ) / 1
LCM(4237,6176) = 26167712 / 1
LCM(4237,6176) = 26167712
Lets's calculate GCF of 72,249
3 | 72, 249 |
24, 83 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 26167712/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 4237/72,6176/249 is 26167712/3
