Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 9338/842, 7228/1420 quickly i.e. 16873766 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 9338/842, 7228/1420 is 16873766.
LCM(9338/842, 7228/1420) = 16873766
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 9338/842,7228/1420
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 9338,7228
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 9338,7228 is 33747532.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 842,1420 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 842,1420 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9338,7228
2 | 9338, 7228 |
4669, 3614 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 4669 x 3614 = 33747532
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 9338,7228 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9338,7228) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9338,7228) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(9338,7228) = ( 9338 × 7228 ) / 2
LCM(9338,7228) = 67495064 / 2
LCM(9338,7228) = 33747532
Lets's calculate GCF of 842,1420
2 | 842, 1420 |
421, 710 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 33747532/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 9338/842,7228/1420 is 16873766
