Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 8487/397, 8504/873 quickly i.e. 72173448 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8487/397, 8504/873 is 72173448.
LCM(8487/397, 8504/873) = 72173448
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 8487/397,8504/873
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 8487,8504
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 8487,8504 is 72173448.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 397,873 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 397,873 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 8487,8504
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 72173448
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 8487,8504 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(8487,8504) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(8487,8504) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(8487,8504) = ( 8487 × 8504 ) / 1
LCM(8487,8504) = 72173448 / 1
LCM(8487,8504) = 72173448
Lets's calculate GCF of 397,873
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 72173448/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 8487/397,8504/873 is 72173448
