Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 45/884, 12/442 quickly i.e. 180/442 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 45/884, 12/442 is 180/442.
LCM(45/884, 12/442) = 180/442
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 45/884,12/442
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 45,12
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 45,12 is 180.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 884,442 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 884,442 is 442 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,12
3 | 45, 12 |
15, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 15 x 4 = 180
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 45,12 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,12) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,12) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(45,12) = ( 45 × 12 ) / 3
LCM(45,12) = 540 / 3
LCM(45,12) = 180
Lets's calculate GCF of 884,442
2 | 884, 442 |
13 | 442, 221 |
17 | 34, 17 |
2, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 17 = 442
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 180/442
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 45/884,12/442 is 180/442
