Lets's calculate LCM of 381,258
3 | 381, 258 |
127, 86 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 127 x 86 = 32766
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/32766
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4812/381,2044/258 is 4/32766
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 381,258 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(381,258) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(381,258) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(381,258) = ( 381 × 258 ) / 3
LCM(381,258) = 98298 / 3
LCM(381,258) = 32766
