Lets's calculate LCM of 333,9432
3 | 333, 9432 |
3 | 111, 3144 |
37, 1048 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 37 x 1048 = 348984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/348984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4346/333,1552/9432 is 2/348984
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 333,9432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(333,9432) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(333,9432) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(333,9432) = ( 333 × 9432 ) / 9
LCM(333,9432) = 3140856 / 9
LCM(333,9432) = 348984
