Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 940/15, 1986/393 quickly i.e. 311140 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 940/15, 1986/393 is 311140.
LCM(940/15, 1986/393) = 311140
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 940/15,1986/393
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 940,1986
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 940,1986 is 933420.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 15,393 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 15,393 is 3 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 940,1986
2 | 940, 1986 |
470, 993 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 470 x 993 = 933420
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 940,1986 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(940,1986) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(940,1986) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(940,1986) = ( 940 × 1986 ) / 2
LCM(940,1986) = 1866840 / 2
LCM(940,1986) = 933420
Lets's calculate GCF of 15,393
3 | 15, 393 |
5, 131 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 933420/3
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 940/15,1986/393 is 311140
