Lets's calculate LCM of 931,4522
7 | 931, 4522 |
19 | 133, 646 |
7, 34 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 19 x 7 x 34 = 31654
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/31654
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3636/931,1116/4522 is 36/31654
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 931,4522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(931,4522) = 133
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(931,4522) x common factors =133 x 1 = 133
LCM(931,4522) = ( 931 × 4522 ) / 133
LCM(931,4522) = 4209982 / 133
LCM(931,4522) = 31654
