Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 488/374, 5231/877 quickly i.e. 2552728 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 488/374, 5231/877 is 2552728.
LCM(488/374, 5231/877) = 2552728
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 488/374,5231/877
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 488,5231
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 488,5231 is 2552728.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 374,877 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 374,877 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 488,5231
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2552728
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 488,5231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,5231) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,5231) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(488,5231) = ( 488 × 5231 ) / 1
LCM(488,5231) = 2552728 / 1
LCM(488,5231) = 2552728
Lets's calculate GCF of 374,877
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2552728/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 488/374,5231/877 is 2552728
