Lets's calculate LCM of 366,800
2 | 366, 800 |
183, 400 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 183 x 400 = 146400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/146400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4592/366,2340/800 is 4/146400
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 366,800 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(366,800) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(366,800) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(366,800) = ( 366 × 800 ) / 2
LCM(366,800) = 292800 / 2
LCM(366,800) = 146400
