Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 638/72, 576/6316 quickly i.e. 45936 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 638/72, 576/6316 is 45936.
LCM(638/72, 576/6316) = 45936
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 638/72,576/6316
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 638,576
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 638,576 is 183744.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 72,6316 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 72,6316 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 638,576
2 | 638, 576 |
319, 288 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 319 x 288 = 183744
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 638,576 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(638,576) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(638,576) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(638,576) = ( 638 × 576 ) / 2
LCM(638,576) = 367488 / 2
LCM(638,576) = 183744
Lets's calculate GCF of 72,6316
2 | 72, 6316 |
2 | 36, 3158 |
18, 1579 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 183744/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 638/72,576/6316 is 45936
