Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 788/43, 402/3538 quickly i.e. 158388 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 788/43, 402/3538 is 158388.
LCM(788/43, 402/3538) = 158388
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 788/43,402/3538
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 788,402
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 788,402 is 158388.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 43,3538 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 43,3538 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 788,402
2 | 788, 402 |
394, 201 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 394 x 201 = 158388
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 788,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(788,402) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(788,402) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(788,402) = ( 788 × 402 ) / 2
LCM(788,402) = 316776 / 2
LCM(788,402) = 158388
Lets's calculate GCF of 43,3538
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 158388/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 788/43,402/3538 is 158388
