Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 978/98, 166/176 quickly i.e. 40587 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 978/98, 166/176 is 40587.
LCM(978/98, 166/176) = 40587
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 978/98,166/176
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 978,166
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 978,166 is 81174.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 98,176 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 98,176 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 978,166
2 | 978, 166 |
489, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 489 x 83 = 81174
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 978,166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,166) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(978,166) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(978,166) = ( 978 × 166 ) / 2
LCM(978,166) = 162348 / 2
LCM(978,166) = 81174
Lets's calculate GCF of 98,176
2 | 98, 176 |
49, 88 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 81174/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 978/98,166/176 is 40587
