Lets's calculate LCM of 360,7212
2 | 360, 7212 |
2 | 180, 3606 |
3 | 90, 1803 |
30, 601 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 30 x 601 = 216360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/216360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3892/360,9955/7212 is 1/216360
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 360,7212 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(360,7212) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(360,7212) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(360,7212) = ( 360 × 7212 ) / 12
LCM(360,7212) = 2596320 / 12
LCM(360,7212) = 216360
