Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 6961/959, 1687/1402 quickly i.e. 11743207 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 6961/959, 1687/1402 is 11743207.
LCM(6961/959, 1687/1402) = 11743207
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 6961/959,1687/1402
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 6961,1687
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 6961,1687 is 11743207.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 959,1402 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 959,1402 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 6961,1687
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11743207
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 6961,1687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(6961,1687) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(6961,1687) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(6961,1687) = ( 6961 × 1687 ) / 1
LCM(6961,1687) = 11743207 / 1
LCM(6961,1687) = 11743207
Lets's calculate GCF of 959,1402
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 11743207/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 6961/959,1687/1402 is 11743207
