Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 73/720, 32/216, 648/252 quickly i.e. 5256 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 73/720, 32/216, 648/252 is 5256.
LCM(73/720, 32/216, 648/252) = 5256
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 73/720,32/216,648/252
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 73,32,648
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 73,32,648 is 189216.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 720,216,252 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 720,216,252 is 36 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,32,648
2 | 73, 32, 648 |
2 | 73, 16, 324 |
2 | 73, 8, 162 |
73, 4, 81 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 73 x 4 x 81 = 189216
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 73,32,648 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,32,648) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(73,32,648) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(73,32,648) = ( 73 × 32 × 648 ) / 8
LCM(73,32,648) = 1513728 / 8
LCM(73,32,648) = 189216
Lets's calculate GCF of 720,216,252
2 | 720, 216, 252 |
2 | 360, 108, 126 |
3 | 180, 54, 63 |
3 | 60, 18, 21 |
20, 6, 7 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 36
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 189216/36
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 73/720,32/216,648/252 is 5256
