Lets's calculate LCM of 906,1752
2 | 906, 1752 |
3 | 453, 876 |
151, 292 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 151 x 292 = 264552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/264552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4176/906,9042/1752 is 6/264552
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 906,1752 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(906,1752) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(906,1752) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(906,1752) = ( 906 × 1752 ) / 6
LCM(906,1752) = 1587312 / 6
LCM(906,1752) = 264552
