Handy LCM of decimals calculator will determine the Least Common Multiple of given inputs 1.2, 4.8, 6 i.e. 24 and shows the entire worked out procedure.
LCM of 1.2, 4.8, 6 is 24
LCM(1.2, 4.8, 6) = 24
Ex: 1.5, 3.5, 2.5 (or) 2.4, 4.8, 0.96,4.5 (or) 789.02, 897.65, 123.45
Given numbers are 1.2,4.8,6. The highest number of digits after the decimal point in the given case is 1
Thus, in order to get rid of the decimal point we need to multiply them with 10. On doing so, they are as follows
1.2 x 10 = 12
4.8 x 10 = 48
6 x 10 = 60
On finding the LCM of 12,48,60 we get the Least Common Multiple as 240
Arrange the Inputs 12,48,60 in a horizontal line separated by commas and divide them with a prime number. Note the quotients in the next row and divide with quotients with prime numbers again. Continue the process until you have all co primes in the last.
2 | 12, 48, 60 |
2 | 6, 24, 30 |
3 | 3, 12, 15 |
1, 4, 5 |
As all the numbers left in the last row are co primes you need not do the common division process further.
To obtain the Least Common Multiple, multiply the prime numbers with which you have divided the given numbers and the co primes in the last row i.e. 2 x 2 x 3 x 1 x 4 x 5 = 240
Therefore, LCM of 12,48,60 is 240
Divide the result you got with the number you multiplied to make it as integer in the first step. In this case, we need to divide by 10 as we used it to make the given numbers into integers.
On dividing the LCM 240/10 we get 24
Thus the Least Common Multiple of 1.2,4.8,6 is 24
Step1:
Let's calculate the LCM of first two numbers
The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a x b) / GCF(a,b)
GCF(12, 48) = 12
LCM(12, 48) = ( 12 x 48 ) / 12
LCM(12, 48) = 576 / 12
LCM(12, 48) = 48
Step2:
Here we consider the LCM from the above i.e. 48 as first number and the next as 60
The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a x b) / GCF(a,b)
GCF(48, 60) = 12
LCM(48, 60) = ( 48 x 60 ) / 12
LCM(48, 60) = 2880 / 12
LCM(48, 60) = 240
LCM of 12,48,60 is 240
