Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 968/950, 3332/768 quickly i.e. 403172 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 968/950, 3332/768 is 403172.
LCM(968/950, 3332/768) = 403172
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 968/950,3332/768
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 968,3332
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 968,3332 is 806344.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 950,768 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 950,768 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 968,3332
2 | 968, 3332 |
2 | 484, 1666 |
242, 833 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 242 x 833 = 806344
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 968,3332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(968,3332) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(968,3332) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(968,3332) = ( 968 × 3332 ) / 4
LCM(968,3332) = 3225376 / 4
LCM(968,3332) = 806344
Lets's calculate GCF of 950,768
2 | 950, 768 |
475, 384 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 806344/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 968/950,3332/768 is 403172
