Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 7642/278, 1678/294 quickly i.e. 3205819 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 7642/278, 1678/294 is 3205819.
LCM(7642/278, 1678/294) = 3205819
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 7642/278,1678/294
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 7642,1678
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 7642,1678 is 6411638.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 278,294 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 278,294 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 7642,1678
2 | 7642, 1678 |
3821, 839 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3821 x 839 = 6411638
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 7642,1678 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7642,1678) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7642,1678) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(7642,1678) = ( 7642 × 1678 ) / 2
LCM(7642,1678) = 12823276 / 2
LCM(7642,1678) = 6411638
Lets's calculate GCF of 278,294
2 | 278, 294 |
139, 147 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 6411638/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 7642/278,1678/294 is 3205819
