Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 987/256, 778/328, 509/669 is 390853974.
LCM(987/256, 778/328, 509/669) = 390853974
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 987/256,778/328,509/669
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 987,778,509
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 987,778,509 is 390853974.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 256,328,669 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 256,328,669 is 1 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 987,778,509
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 390853974
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 987,778,509 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(987,778,509) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(987,778,509) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(987,778,509) = ( 987 × 778 × 509 ) / 1
LCM(987,778,509) = 390853974 / 1
LCM(987,778,509) = 390853974
Lets's calculate GCF of 256,328,669
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 390853974/1
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 987/256,778/328,509/669 is 390853974
