Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 4272/462, 5436/670 quickly i.e. 967608 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4272/462, 5436/670 is 967608.
LCM(4272/462, 5436/670) = 967608
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 4272/462,5436/670
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 4272,5436
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 4272,5436 is 1935216.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 462,670 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 462,670 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 4272,5436
2 | 4272, 5436 |
2 | 2136, 2718 |
3 | 1068, 1359 |
356, 453 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 356 x 453 = 1935216
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 4272,5436 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4272,5436) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4272,5436) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(4272,5436) = ( 4272 × 5436 ) / 12
LCM(4272,5436) = 23222592 / 12
LCM(4272,5436) = 1935216
Lets's calculate GCF of 462,670
2 | 462, 670 |
231, 335 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1935216/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 4272/462,5436/670 is 967608
