Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 48/687, 8905/3718 quickly i.e. 427440 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 48/687, 8905/3718 is 427440.
LCM(48/687, 8905/3718) = 427440
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 48/687,8905/3718
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 48,8905
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 48,8905 is 427440.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 687,3718 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 687,3718 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,8905
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 427440
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 48,8905 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,8905) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,8905) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(48,8905) = ( 48 × 8905 ) / 1
LCM(48,8905) = 427440 / 1
LCM(48,8905) = 427440
Lets's calculate GCF of 687,3718
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 427440/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 48/687,8905/3718 is 427440
