Lets's calculate LCM of 962,3624
2 | 962, 3624 |
481, 1812 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 481 x 1812 = 1743144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 37/1743144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3811/962,8288/3624 is 37/1743144
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 962,3624 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(962,3624) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(962,3624) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(962,3624) = ( 962 × 3624 ) / 2
LCM(962,3624) = 3486288 / 2
LCM(962,3624) = 1743144
