Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 970/468, 216/502 quickly i.e. 52380 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 970/468, 216/502 is 52380.
LCM(970/468, 216/502) = 52380
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 970/468,216/502
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 970,216
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 970,216 is 104760.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 468,502 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 468,502 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 970,216
2 | 970, 216 |
485, 108 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 485 x 108 = 104760
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 970,216 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(970,216) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(970,216) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(970,216) = ( 970 × 216 ) / 2
LCM(970,216) = 209520 / 2
LCM(970,216) = 104760
Lets's calculate GCF of 468,502
2 | 468, 502 |
234, 251 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 104760/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 970/468,216/502 is 52380
