Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 843/74, 378/388 quickly i.e. 53109 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 843/74, 378/388 is 53109.
LCM(843/74, 378/388) = 53109
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 843/74,378/388
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 843,378
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 843,378 is 106218.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 74,388 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 74,388 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 843,378
3 | 843, 378 |
281, 126 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 281 x 126 = 106218
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 843,378 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(843,378) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(843,378) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(843,378) = ( 843 × 378 ) / 3
LCM(843,378) = 318654 / 3
LCM(843,378) = 106218
Lets's calculate GCF of 74,388
2 | 74, 388 |
37, 194 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 106218/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 843/74,378/388 is 53109
