Lets's calculate LCM of 644,188
2 | 644, 188 |
2 | 322, 94 |
161, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 161 x 47 = 30268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4857/644,3842/188 is 1/30268
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 644,188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(644,188) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(644,188) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(644,188) = ( 644 × 188 ) / 4
LCM(644,188) = 121072 / 4
LCM(644,188) = 30268
