Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 468/871, 7272/2184 quickly i.e. 7272 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 468/871, 7272/2184 is 7272.
LCM(468/871, 7272/2184) = 7272
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 468/871,7272/2184
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 468,7272
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 468,7272 is 94536.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 871,2184 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 871,2184 is 13 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 468,7272
2 | 468, 7272 |
2 | 234, 3636 |
3 | 117, 1818 |
3 | 39, 606 |
13, 202 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 13 x 202 = 94536
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 468,7272 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(468,7272) = 36
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(468,7272) x common factors =36 x 1 = 36
LCM(468,7272) = ( 468 × 7272 ) / 36
LCM(468,7272) = 3403296 / 36
LCM(468,7272) = 94536
Lets's calculate GCF of 871,2184
13 | 871, 2184 |
67, 168 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 = 13
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 94536/13
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 468/871,7272/2184 is 7272
