Lets's calculate LCM of 874,436
2 | 874, 436 |
437, 218 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 437 x 218 = 190532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/190532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1500/874,9143/436 is 1/190532
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 874,436 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(874,436) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(874,436) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(874,436) = ( 874 × 436 ) / 2
LCM(874,436) = 381064 / 2
LCM(874,436) = 190532
