Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 8721/166, 4335/476 quickly i.e. 741285/2 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 8721/166, 4335/476 is 741285/2.
LCM(8721/166, 4335/476) = 741285/2
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 8721/166,4335/476
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 8721,4335
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 8721,4335 is 741285.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 166,476 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 166,476 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 8721,4335
3 | 8721, 4335 |
17 | 2907, 1445 |
171, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 17 x 171 x 85 = 741285
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 8721,4335 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(8721,4335) = 51
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(8721,4335) x common factors =51 x 1 = 51
LCM(8721,4335) = ( 8721 × 4335 ) / 51
LCM(8721,4335) = 37805535 / 51
LCM(8721,4335) = 741285
Lets's calculate GCF of 166,476
2 | 166, 476 |
83, 238 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 741285/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 8721/166,4335/476 is 741285/2
