Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 7982/72, 7386/850 quickly i.e. 14738763 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 7982/72, 7386/850 is 14738763.
LCM(7982/72, 7386/850) = 14738763
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 7982/72,7386/850
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 7982,7386
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 7982,7386 is 29477526.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 72,850 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 72,850 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 7982,7386
2 | 7982, 7386 |
3991, 3693 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3991 x 3693 = 29477526
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 7982,7386 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7982,7386) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7982,7386) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(7982,7386) = ( 7982 × 7386 ) / 2
LCM(7982,7386) = 58955052 / 2
LCM(7982,7386) = 29477526
Lets's calculate GCF of 72,850
2 | 72, 850 |
36, 425 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 29477526/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 7982/72,7386/850 is 14738763
