Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 918/358, 8734/242 quickly i.e. 2004453 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 918/358, 8734/242 is 2004453.
LCM(918/358, 8734/242) = 2004453
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 918/358,8734/242
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 918,8734
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 918,8734 is 4008906.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 358,242 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 358,242 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 918,8734
2 | 918, 8734 |
459, 4367 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 459 x 4367 = 4008906
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 918,8734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(918,8734) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(918,8734) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(918,8734) = ( 918 × 8734 ) / 2
LCM(918,8734) = 8017812 / 2
LCM(918,8734) = 4008906
Lets's calculate GCF of 358,242
2 | 358, 242 |
179, 121 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 4008906/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 918/358,8734/242 is 2004453
