Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 60/872, 1538/5232 quickly i.e. 46140/872 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 60/872, 1538/5232 is 46140/872.
LCM(60/872, 1538/5232) = 46140/872
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 60/872,1538/5232
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 60,1538
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 60,1538 is 46140.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 872,5232 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 872,5232 is 872 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,1538
2 | 60, 1538 |
30, 769 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 30 x 769 = 46140
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 60,1538 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,1538) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(60,1538) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(60,1538) = ( 60 × 1538 ) / 2
LCM(60,1538) = 92280 / 2
LCM(60,1538) = 46140
Lets's calculate GCF of 872,5232
2 | 872, 5232 |
2 | 436, 2616 |
2 | 218, 1308 |
109 | 109, 654 |
1, 6 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 109 = 872
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 46140/872
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 60/872,1538/5232 is 46140/872
