Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 8439/457, 8978/237 quickly i.e. 75765342 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8439/457, 8978/237 is 75765342.
LCM(8439/457, 8978/237) = 75765342
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 8439/457,8978/237
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 8439,8978
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 8439,8978 is 75765342.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 457,237 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 457,237 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 8439,8978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75765342
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 8439,8978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(8439,8978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(8439,8978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(8439,8978) = ( 8439 × 8978 ) / 1
LCM(8439,8978) = 75765342 / 1
LCM(8439,8978) = 75765342
Lets's calculate GCF of 457,237
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 75765342/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 8439/457,8978/237 is 75765342
