Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 857/197, 712/688, 238/448 quickly i.e. 72611896 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 857/197, 712/688, 238/448 is 72611896.
LCM(857/197, 712/688, 238/448) = 72611896
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 857/197,712/688,238/448
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 857,712,238
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 857,712,238 is 72611896.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 197,688,448 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 197,688,448 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 857,712,238
2 | 857, 712, 238 |
857, 356, 119 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 857 x 356 x 119 = 72611896
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 857,712,238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(857,712,238) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(857,712,238) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(857,712,238) = ( 857 × 712 × 238 ) / 2
LCM(857,712,238) = 145223792 / 2
LCM(857,712,238) = 72611896
Lets's calculate GCF of 197,688,448
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 72611896/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 857/197,712/688,238/448 is 72611896
