Lets's calculate LCM of 282,236
2 | 282, 236 |
141, 118 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 141 x 118 = 33276
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/33276
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 352/282,8875/236 is 1/33276
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 282,236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(282,236) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(282,236) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(282,236) = ( 282 × 236 ) / 2
LCM(282,236) = 66552 / 2
LCM(282,236) = 33276
