Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 502/444, 987/283 quickly i.e. 495474 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 502/444, 987/283 is 495474.
LCM(502/444, 987/283) = 495474
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 502/444,987/283
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 502,987
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 502,987 is 495474.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 444,283 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 444,283 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 502,987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 495474
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 502,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(502,987) = ( 502 × 987 ) / 1
LCM(502,987) = 495474 / 1
LCM(502,987) = 495474
Lets's calculate GCF of 444,283
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 495474/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 502/444,987/283 is 495474
