Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 862/17, 551/5950 quickly i.e. 474962/17 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 862/17, 551/5950 is 474962/17.
LCM(862/17, 551/5950) = 474962/17
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 862/17,551/5950
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 862,551
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 862,551 is 474962.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 17,5950 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 17,5950 is 17 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 862,551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 474962
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 862,551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(862,551) = ( 862 × 551 ) / 1
LCM(862,551) = 474962 / 1
LCM(862,551) = 474962
Lets's calculate GCF of 17,5950
17 | 17, 5950 |
1, 350 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 17 = 17
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 474962/17
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 862/17,551/5950 is 474962/17
