So the greatest common factor 364,572 is 52.
Lets's calculate LCM of 436,114
2 | 436, 114 |
218, 57 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 218 x 57 = 24852
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 52/24852
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 364/436,572/114 is 52/24852
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 436,114 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(436,114) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(436,114) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(436,114) = ( 436 × 114 ) / 2
LCM(436,114) = 49704 / 2
LCM(436,114) = 24852
