Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 506/101, 242/571 quickly i.e. 5566 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 506/101, 242/571 is 5566.
LCM(506/101, 242/571) = 5566
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 506/101,242/571
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 506,242
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 506,242 is 5566.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 101,571 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 101,571 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 506,242
2 | 506, 242 |
11 | 253, 121 |
23, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 23 x 11 = 5566
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 506,242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,242) = 22
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,242) x common factors =22 x 1 = 22
LCM(506,242) = ( 506 × 242 ) / 22
LCM(506,242) = 122452 / 22
LCM(506,242) = 5566
Lets's calculate GCF of 101,571
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 5566/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 506/101,242/571 is 5566
