Lets's calculate LCM of 189,7248
3 | 189, 7248 |
63, 2416 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 63 x 2416 = 456624
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/456624
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4472/189,4557/7248 is 1/456624
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 189,7248 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,7248) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,7248) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(189,7248) = ( 189 × 7248 ) / 3
LCM(189,7248) = 1369872 / 3
LCM(189,7248) = 456624
