Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 978/56, 634/74, 259/180 quickly i.e. 40148367 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 978/56, 634/74, 259/180 is 40148367.
LCM(978/56, 634/74, 259/180) = 40148367
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 978/56,634/74,259/180
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 978,634,259
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 978,634,259 is 80296734.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 56,74,180 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 56,74,180 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 978,634,259
2 | 978, 634, 259 |
489, 317, 259 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 489 x 317 x 259 = 80296734
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 978,634,259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,634,259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(978,634,259) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(978,634,259) = ( 978 × 634 × 259 ) / 2
LCM(978,634,259) = 160593468 / 2
LCM(978,634,259) = 80296734
Lets's calculate GCF of 56,74,180
2 | 56, 74, 180 |
28, 37, 90 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 80296734/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 978/56,634/74,259/180 is 40148367
