Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 429/900, 5200/242 quickly i.e. 85800 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 429/900, 5200/242 is 85800.
LCM(429/900, 5200/242) = 85800
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 429/900,5200/242
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 429,5200
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 429,5200 is 171600.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 900,242 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 900,242 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 429,5200
13 | 429, 5200 |
33, 400 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 33 x 400 = 171600
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 429,5200 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(429,5200) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(429,5200) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(429,5200) = ( 429 × 5200 ) / 13
LCM(429,5200) = 2230800 / 13
LCM(429,5200) = 171600
Lets's calculate GCF of 900,242
2 | 900, 242 |
450, 121 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 171600/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 429/900,5200/242 is 85800
