Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 721/482, 1142/581 quickly i.e. 823382 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 721/482, 1142/581 is 823382.
LCM(721/482, 1142/581) = 823382
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 721/482,1142/581
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 721,1142
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 721,1142 is 823382.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 482,581 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 482,581 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 721,1142
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 823382
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 721,1142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(721,1142) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(721,1142) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(721,1142) = ( 721 × 1142 ) / 1
LCM(721,1142) = 823382 / 1
LCM(721,1142) = 823382
Lets's calculate GCF of 482,581
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 823382/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 721/482,1142/581 is 823382
