Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 4692/468, 2638/8438 quickly i.e. 3094374 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 4692/468, 2638/8438 is 3094374.
LCM(4692/468, 2638/8438) = 3094374
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 4692/468,2638/8438
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 4692,2638
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 4692,2638 is 6188748.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 468,8438 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 468,8438 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 4692,2638
2 | 4692, 2638 |
2346, 1319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2346 x 1319 = 6188748
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 4692,2638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4692,2638) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4692,2638) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(4692,2638) = ( 4692 × 2638 ) / 2
LCM(4692,2638) = 12377496 / 2
LCM(4692,2638) = 6188748
Lets's calculate GCF of 468,8438
2 | 468, 8438 |
234, 4219 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 6188748/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 4692/468,2638/8438 is 3094374
