Know Least Common Multiple of fractions 988/50, 293/888 quickly i.e. 144742 the smallest number that is divisible by all numbers by taking the help of LCM of Fractions Calculator.
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 988/50, 293/888 is 144742.
LCM(988/50, 293/888) = 144742
Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given numbers are 988/50,293/888
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 988,293
Least Common Multiple of Numerators i.e. LCM of 988,293 is 289484.
GCF of Denominators means GCF of 50,888 as per the given fractions.
GCF of 50,888 is 2 as it is the largest common factor for these numbers.
Lets's calculate LCM of 988,293
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 289484
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 988,293 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(988,293) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(988,293) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(988,293) = ( 988 × 293 ) / 1
LCM(988,293) = 289484 / 1
LCM(988,293) = 289484
Lets's calculate GCF of 50,888
2 | 50, 888 |
25, 444 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Thus LCM of Fractions = LCM of Numerators/GCF of Denominators = 289484/2
Therefore the LCM of Fractions 988/50,293/888 is 144742
