Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 744/436, 972/763 quickly i.e. 60264/109 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 744/436, 972/763 is 60264/109.
LCM(744/436, 972/763) = 60264/109
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 744/436,972/763
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 744,972
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 744,972 is 60264.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 436,763 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 436,763 is 109 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 744,972
2 | 744, 972 |
2 | 372, 486 |
3 | 186, 243 |
62, 81 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 62 x 81 = 60264
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 744,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(744,972) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(744,972) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(744,972) = ( 744 × 972 ) / 12
LCM(744,972) = 723168 / 12
LCM(744,972) = 60264
Lets's calculate GCF of 436,763
109 | 436, 763 |
4, 7 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 109 = 109
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 60264/109
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 744/436,972/763 is 60264/109
