Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 68/667, 35/978, 159/427 quickly i.e. 378420 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 68/667, 35/978, 159/427 is 378420.
LCM(68/667, 35/978, 159/427) = 378420
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 68/667,35/978,159/427
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 68,35,159
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 68,35,159 is 378420.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 667,978,427 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 667,978,427 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,35,159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 378420
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 68,35,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,35,159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(68,35,159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(68,35,159) = ( 68 × 35 × 159 ) / 1
LCM(68,35,159) = 378420 / 1
LCM(68,35,159) = 378420
Lets's calculate GCF of 667,978,427
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 378420/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 68/667,35/978,159/427 is 378420
