Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 452/888, 5232/1042 quickly i.e. 295608 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 452/888, 5232/1042 is 295608.
LCM(452/888, 5232/1042) = 295608
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 452/888,5232/1042
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 452,5232
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 452,5232 is 591216.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 888,1042 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 888,1042 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 452,5232
2 | 452, 5232 |
2 | 226, 2616 |
113, 1308 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 113 x 1308 = 591216
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 452,5232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(452,5232) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(452,5232) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(452,5232) = ( 452 × 5232 ) / 4
LCM(452,5232) = 2364864 / 4
LCM(452,5232) = 591216
Lets's calculate GCF of 888,1042
2 | 888, 1042 |
444, 521 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 591216/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 452/888,5232/1042 is 295608
