Lets's calculate LCM of 468,152
2 | 468, 152 |
2 | 234, 76 |
117, 38 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 117 x 38 = 17784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/17784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 328/468,533/152 is 41/17784
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 468,152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(468,152) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(468,152) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(468,152) = ( 468 × 152 ) / 4
LCM(468,152) = 71136 / 4
LCM(468,152) = 17784
