Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 947/868, 8417/556 quickly i.e. 7970899/4 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 947/868, 8417/556 is 7970899/4.
LCM(947/868, 8417/556) = 7970899/4
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 947/868,8417/556
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 947,8417
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 947,8417 is 7970899.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 868,556 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 868,556 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 947,8417
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7970899
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 947,8417 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(947,8417) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(947,8417) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(947,8417) = ( 947 × 8417 ) / 1
LCM(947,8417) = 7970899 / 1
LCM(947,8417) = 7970899
Lets's calculate GCF of 868,556
2 | 868, 556 |
2 | 434, 278 |
217, 139 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 7970899/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 947/868,8417/556 is 7970899/4
