Lets's calculate LCM of 212,8904
2 | 212, 8904 |
2 | 106, 4452 |
53 | 53, 2226 |
1, 42 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 53 x 1 x 42 = 8904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 99/8904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3168/212,1881/8904 is 99/8904
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 212,8904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(212,8904) = 212
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(212,8904) x common factors =212 x 1 = 212
LCM(212,8904) = ( 212 × 8904 ) / 212
LCM(212,8904) = 1887648 / 212
LCM(212,8904) = 8904
