So the greatest common factor 1796,3432 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 604,102
2 | 604, 102 |
302, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 302 x 51 = 30804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/30804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1796/604,3432/102 is 4/30804
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 604,102 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(604,102) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(604,102) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(604,102) = ( 604 × 102 ) / 2
LCM(604,102) = 61608 / 2
LCM(604,102) = 30804
