Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 791/688, 9968/720 quickly i.e. 70399 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 791/688, 9968/720 is 70399.
LCM(791/688, 9968/720) = 70399
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 791/688,9968/720
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 791,9968
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 791,9968 is 1126384.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 688,720 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 688,720 is 16 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 791,9968
7 | 791, 9968 |
113, 1424 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 113 x 1424 = 1126384
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 791,9968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,9968) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,9968) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(791,9968) = ( 791 × 9968 ) / 7
LCM(791,9968) = 7884688 / 7
LCM(791,9968) = 1126384
Lets's calculate GCF of 688,720
2 | 688, 720 |
2 | 344, 360 |
2 | 172, 180 |
2 | 86, 90 |
43, 45 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 1126384/16
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 791/688,9968/720 is 70399
