Lets's calculate LCM of 144,1716
2 | 144, 1716 |
2 | 72, 858 |
3 | 36, 429 |
12, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 12 x 143 = 20592
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20592
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2348/144,3869/1716 is 1/20592
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 144,1716 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,1716) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,1716) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(144,1716) = ( 144 × 1716 ) / 12
LCM(144,1716) = 247104 / 12
LCM(144,1716) = 20592
