Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 5336/932, 8634/278 quickly i.e. 11517756 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 5336/932, 8634/278 is 11517756.
LCM(5336/932, 8634/278) = 11517756
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 5336/932,8634/278
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 5336,8634
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 5336,8634 is 23035512.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 932,278 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 932,278 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 5336,8634
2 | 5336, 8634 |
2668, 4317 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2668 x 4317 = 23035512
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 5336,8634 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5336,8634) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5336,8634) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(5336,8634) = ( 5336 × 8634 ) / 2
LCM(5336,8634) = 46071024 / 2
LCM(5336,8634) = 23035512
Lets's calculate GCF of 932,278
2 | 932, 278 |
466, 139 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 23035512/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 5336/932,8634/278 is 11517756
