Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 640/786, 1462/2642 quickly i.e. 233920 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 640/786, 1462/2642 is 233920.
LCM(640/786, 1462/2642) = 233920
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 640/786,1462/2642
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 640,1462
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 640,1462 is 467840.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 786,2642 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 786,2642 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 640,1462
2 | 640, 1462 |
320, 731 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 320 x 731 = 467840
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 640,1462 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,1462) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,1462) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(640,1462) = ( 640 × 1462 ) / 2
LCM(640,1462) = 935680 / 2
LCM(640,1462) = 467840
Lets's calculate GCF of 786,2642
2 | 786, 2642 |
393, 1321 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 467840/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 640/786,1462/2642 is 233920
