Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 478/10, 669/972 quickly i.e. 159891 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 478/10, 669/972 is 159891.
LCM(478/10, 669/972) = 159891
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 478/10,669/972
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 478,669
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 478,669 is 319782.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 10,972 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 10,972 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 478,669
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 319782
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 478,669 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(478,669) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(478,669) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(478,669) = ( 478 × 669 ) / 1
LCM(478,669) = 319782 / 1
LCM(478,669) = 319782
Lets's calculate GCF of 10,972
2 | 10, 972 |
5, 486 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 319782/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 478/10,669/972 is 159891
