Lets's calculate LCM of 264,3858
2 | 264, 3858 |
3 | 132, 1929 |
44, 643 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 44 x 643 = 169752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/169752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2246/264,9212/3858 is 2/169752
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 264,3858 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,3858) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,3858) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(264,3858) = ( 264 × 3858 ) / 6
LCM(264,3858) = 1018512 / 6
LCM(264,3858) = 169752
