Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 852/102, 346/968 quickly i.e. 73698 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 852/102, 346/968 is 73698.
LCM(852/102, 346/968) = 73698
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 852/102,346/968
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 852,346
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 852,346 is 147396.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 102,968 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 102,968 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 852,346
2 | 852, 346 |
426, 173 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 426 x 173 = 147396
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 852,346 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,346) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,346) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(852,346) = ( 852 × 346 ) / 2
LCM(852,346) = 294792 / 2
LCM(852,346) = 147396
Lets's calculate GCF of 102,968
2 | 102, 968 |
51, 484 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 147396/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 852/102,346/968 is 73698
