Here, we give you the method to find LCM of 14.4, 18.5, 25.9. Check the LCM of Decimals Calculator to get the detailed process to find the lowest common multiple of decimals 14.4, 18.5, 25.9.
Enter two or more decimals separated by "commas"
Ex: 0.2, 0.3 or 0.4, 0.5, 0.6
Given Numbers are 14.4,18.5,25.9
Given numbers are 14.4,18.5,25.9. 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
14.4 x 10 = 144
18.5 x 10 = 185
25.9 x 10 = 259
The LCM of 144,185,259 is 186480
So, the LCM of 14.4,18.5,25.9 is 18648
37 | 144, 185, 259 |
144, 5, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 37 x 144 x 5 x 7 = 186480
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 186480/10 we get 18648
Thus the Least Common Multiple of 14.4,18.5,25.9 is 18648
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 144,185,259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,185,259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 37
GCF(144,185,259) x common factors =1 x 37 = 37
LCM(144,185,259) = ( 144 × 185 × 259 ) / 37
LCM(144,185,259) = 6899760 / 37
LCM(144,185,259) = 186480
Here are some samples of LCM of Decimals calculations.
1. What is the LCM of 14.4, 18.5, 25.9?
Answer: LCM of 14.4, 18.5, 25.9 is 18648.
2. How to Find the LCM of 14.4, 18.5, 25.9?
Answer: Least Common Factor(LCM) of 14.4, 18.5, 25.9 = 18648
Step 1: First calculate the highest decimal number after decimal point.
Step 2: Then multiply all numbers with 10.
Step 3: Then find LCM of 144,185,259. After getting LCM devide the result with 10 the value that is previously multiplied.
