Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 538/340, 6883/476 quickly i.e. 3703054/68 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 538/340, 6883/476 is 3703054/68.
LCM(538/340, 6883/476) = 3703054/68
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 538/340,6883/476
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 538,6883
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 538,6883 is 3703054.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 340,476 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 340,476 is 68 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 538,6883
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3703054
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 538,6883 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,6883) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,6883) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,6883) = ( 538 × 6883 ) / 1
LCM(538,6883) = 3703054 / 1
LCM(538,6883) = 3703054
Lets's calculate GCF of 340,476
2 | 340, 476 |
2 | 170, 238 |
17 | 85, 119 |
5, 7 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 17 = 68
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 3703054/68
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 538/340,6883/476 is 3703054/68
