Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 52/18, 36/64, 48/76, 42/784 quickly i.e. 6552 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 52/18, 36/64, 48/76, 42/784 is 6552.
LCM(52/18, 36/64, 48/76, 42/784) = 6552
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 52/18,36/64,48/76,42/784
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 52,36,48,42
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 52,36,48,42 is 13104.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 18,64,76,784 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 18,64,76,784 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,36,48,42
2 | 52, 36, 48, 42 |
2 | 26, 18, 24, 21 |
3 | 13, 9, 12, 21 |
13, 3, 4, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 13 x 3 x 4 x 7 = 13104
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 52,36,48,42 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,36,48,42) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 144
GCF(52,36,48,42) x common factors =2 x 144 = 288
LCM(52,36,48,42) = ( 52 × 36 × 48 × 42 ) / 288
LCM(52,36,48,42) = 3773952 / 288
LCM(52,36,48,42) = 13104
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,64,76,784
2 | 18, 64, 76, 784 |
9, 32, 38, 392 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 13104/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 52/18,36/64,48/76,42/784 is 6552
