Lets's calculate LCM of 372,1534
2 | 372, 1534 |
186, 767 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 186 x 767 = 285324
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/285324
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3786/372,6875/1534 is 1/285324
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 372,1534 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,1534) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,1534) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(372,1534) = ( 372 × 1534 ) / 2
LCM(372,1534) = 570648 / 2
LCM(372,1534) = 285324
