Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 501/637, 5547/959 quickly i.e. 926349/7 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 501/637, 5547/959 is 926349/7.
LCM(501/637, 5547/959) = 926349/7
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 501/637,5547/959
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 501,5547
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 501,5547 is 926349.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 637,959 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 637,959 is 7 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 501,5547
3 | 501, 5547 |
167, 1849 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 167 x 1849 = 926349
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 501,5547 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(501,5547) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(501,5547) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(501,5547) = ( 501 × 5547 ) / 3
LCM(501,5547) = 2779047 / 3
LCM(501,5547) = 926349
Lets's calculate GCF of 637,959
7 | 637, 959 |
91, 137 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 926349/7
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 501/637,5547/959 is 926349/7
