Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 68/172, 40/482, 930/988 quickly i.e. 31620 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 68/172, 40/482, 930/988 is 31620.
LCM(68/172, 40/482, 930/988) = 31620
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 68/172,40/482,930/988
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 68,40,930
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 68,40,930 is 63240.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 172,482,988 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 172,482,988 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,40,930
2 | 68, 40, 930 |
2 | 34, 20, 465 |
5 | 17, 10, 465 |
17, 2, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 17 x 2 x 93 = 63240
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 68,40,930 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,40,930) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 20
GCF(68,40,930) x common factors =2 x 20 = 40
LCM(68,40,930) = ( 68 × 40 × 930 ) / 40
LCM(68,40,930) = 2529600 / 40
LCM(68,40,930) = 63240
Lets's calculate GCF of 172,482,988
2 | 172, 482, 988 |
86, 241, 494 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 63240/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 68/172,40/482,930/988 is 31620
