Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 424/979, 142/264 quickly i.e. 30104/11 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 424/979, 142/264 is 30104/11.
LCM(424/979, 142/264) = 30104/11
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 424/979,142/264
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 424,142
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 424,142 is 30104.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 979,264 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 979,264 is 11 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 424,142
2 | 424, 142 |
212, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 212 x 71 = 30104
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 424,142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(424,142) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(424,142) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(424,142) = ( 424 × 142 ) / 2
LCM(424,142) = 60208 / 2
LCM(424,142) = 30104
Lets's calculate GCF of 979,264
11 | 979, 264 |
89, 24 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 30104/11
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 424/979,142/264 is 30104/11
