Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 959/856, 5288/1836 quickly i.e. 1267798 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 959/856, 5288/1836 is 1267798.
LCM(959/856, 5288/1836) = 1267798
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 959/856,5288/1836
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 959,5288
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 959,5288 is 5071192.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 856,1836 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 856,1836 is 4 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 959,5288
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5071192
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 959,5288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,5288) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,5288) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,5288) = ( 959 × 5288 ) / 1
LCM(959,5288) = 5071192 / 1
LCM(959,5288) = 5071192
Lets's calculate GCF of 856,1836
2 | 856, 1836 |
2 | 428, 918 |
214, 459 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 5071192/4
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 959/856,5288/1836 is 1267798
