Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 742/993, 2161/541 quickly i.e. 1603462 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 742/993, 2161/541 is 1603462.
LCM(742/993, 2161/541) = 1603462
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 742/993,2161/541
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 742,2161
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 742,2161 is 1603462.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 993,541 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 993,541 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 742,2161
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1603462
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 742,2161 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(742,2161) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(742,2161) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(742,2161) = ( 742 × 2161 ) / 1
LCM(742,2161) = 1603462 / 1
LCM(742,2161) = 1603462
Lets's calculate GCF of 993,541
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1603462/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 742/993,2161/541 is 1603462
