Lets's calculate LCM of 936,7470
2 | 936, 7470 |
3 | 468, 3735 |
3 | 156, 1245 |
52, 415 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 52 x 415 = 388440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/388440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4512/936,3226/7470 is 2/388440
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 936,7470 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(936,7470) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(936,7470) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(936,7470) = ( 936 × 7470 ) / 18
LCM(936,7470) = 6991920 / 18
LCM(936,7470) = 388440
