Lets's calculate LCM of 768,3828
2 | 768, 3828 |
2 | 384, 1914 |
3 | 192, 957 |
64, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 64 x 319 = 244992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/244992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1488/768,3037/3828 is 1/244992
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 768,3828 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(768,3828) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(768,3828) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(768,3828) = ( 768 × 3828 ) / 12
LCM(768,3828) = 2939904 / 12
LCM(768,3828) = 244992
