2 | 378, 3668 |
7 | 189, 1834 |
27, 262 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 27 x 262 = 99036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/99036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4574/378,3266/3668 is 2/99036
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 378,3668 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(378,3668) = 14
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(378,3668) x common factors =14 x 1 = 14
LCM(378,3668) = ( 378 × 3668 ) / 14
LCM(378,3668) = 1386504 / 14
LCM(378,3668) = 99036
