So the greatest common factor 2122,1836 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,9036
2 | 264, 9036 |
2 | 132, 4518 |
3 | 66, 2259 |
22, 753 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 22 x 753 = 198792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/198792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2122/264,1836/9036 is 2/198792
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 264,9036 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,9036) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,9036) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(264,9036) = ( 264 × 9036 ) / 12
LCM(264,9036) = 2385504 / 12
LCM(264,9036) = 198792
