Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 551/532, 4212/132 quickly i.e. 580203 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 551/532, 4212/132 is 580203.
LCM(551/532, 4212/132) = 580203
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 551/532,4212/132
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 551,4212
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 551,4212 is 2320812.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 532,132 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 532,132 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 551,4212
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2320812
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 551,4212 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(551,4212) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(551,4212) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(551,4212) = ( 551 × 4212 ) / 1
LCM(551,4212) = 2320812 / 1
LCM(551,4212) = 2320812
Lets's calculate GCF of 532,132
2 | 532, 132 |
2 | 266, 66 |
133, 33 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 2320812/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 551/532,4212/132 is 580203
