Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 641/550, 7432/972 quickly i.e. 2381956 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 641/550, 7432/972 is 2381956.
LCM(641/550, 7432/972) = 2381956
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 641/550,7432/972
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 641,7432
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 641,7432 is 4763912.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 550,972 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 550,972 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 641,7432
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4763912
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 641,7432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(641,7432) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(641,7432) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(641,7432) = ( 641 × 7432 ) / 1
LCM(641,7432) = 4763912 / 1
LCM(641,7432) = 4763912
Lets's calculate GCF of 550,972
2 | 550, 972 |
275, 486 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 4763912/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 641/550,7432/972 is 2381956
