Lets's calculate LCM of 837,1364
31 | 837, 1364 |
27, 44 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 31 x 27 x 44 = 36828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/36828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2466/837,3652/1364 is 2/36828
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 837,1364 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,1364) = 31
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,1364) x common factors =31 x 1 = 31
LCM(837,1364) = ( 837 × 1364 ) / 31
LCM(837,1364) = 1141668 / 31
LCM(837,1364) = 36828
