Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 5898/988, 3624/2958 quickly i.e. 1781196 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 5898/988, 3624/2958 is 1781196.
LCM(5898/988, 3624/2958) = 1781196
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 5898/988,3624/2958
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 5898,3624
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 5898,3624 is 3562392.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 988,2958 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 988,2958 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 5898,3624
2 | 5898, 3624 |
3 | 2949, 1812 |
983, 604 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 983 x 604 = 3562392
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 5898,3624 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5898,3624) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5898,3624) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(5898,3624) = ( 5898 × 3624 ) / 6
LCM(5898,3624) = 21374352 / 6
LCM(5898,3624) = 3562392
Lets's calculate GCF of 988,2958
2 | 988, 2958 |
494, 1479 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 3562392/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 5898/988,3624/2958 is 1781196
