Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 8452/492, 4444/138 quickly i.e. 9390172/6 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8452/492, 4444/138 is 9390172/6.
LCM(8452/492, 4444/138) = 9390172/6
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 8452/492,4444/138
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 8452,4444
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 8452,4444 is 9390172.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 492,138 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 492,138 is 6 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 8452,4444
2 | 8452, 4444 |
2 | 4226, 2222 |
2113, 1111 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2113 x 1111 = 9390172
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 8452,4444 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(8452,4444) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(8452,4444) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(8452,4444) = ( 8452 × 4444 ) / 4
LCM(8452,4444) = 37560688 / 4
LCM(8452,4444) = 9390172
Lets's calculate GCF of 492,138
2 | 492, 138 |
3 | 246, 69 |
82, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 9390172/6
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 8452/492,4444/138 is 9390172/6
