Lets's calculate LCM of 918,972
2 | 918, 972 |
3 | 459, 486 |
3 | 153, 162 |
3 | 51, 54 |
17, 18 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 17 x 18 = 16524
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 46/16524
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 184/918,8050/972 is 46/16524
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 918,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(918,972) = 54
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(918,972) x common factors =54 x 1 = 54
LCM(918,972) = ( 918 × 972 ) / 54
LCM(918,972) = 892296 / 54
LCM(918,972) = 16524
