2 | 198, 7124 |
99, 3562 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 99 x 3562 = 705276
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/705276
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3897/198,1855/7124 is 1/705276
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 198,7124 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(198,7124) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(198,7124) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(198,7124) = ( 198 × 7124 ) / 2
LCM(198,7124) = 1410552 / 2
LCM(198,7124) = 705276
