So the greatest common factor 348,276 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,9372
3 | 39, 9372 |
13, 3124 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 13 x 3124 = 121836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/121836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 348/39,276/9372 is 12/121836
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 39,9372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,9372) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(39,9372) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(39,9372) = ( 39 × 9372 ) / 3
LCM(39,9372) = 365508 / 3
LCM(39,9372) = 121836
