Lets's calculate LCM of 228,516
2 | 228, 516 |
2 | 114, 258 |
3 | 57, 129 |
19, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 19 x 43 = 9804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/9804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3627/228,1683/516 is 9/9804
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 228,516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(228,516) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(228,516) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(228,516) = ( 228 × 516 ) / 12
LCM(228,516) = 117648 / 12
LCM(228,516) = 9804
