| 2 | 926, 3732 |
| 463, 1866 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 463 x 1866 = 1727916
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1727916
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4868/926,1994/3732 is 2/1727916
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 926,3732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(926,3732) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(926,3732) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(926,3732) = ( 926 × 3732 ) / 2
LCM(926,3732) = 3455832 / 2
LCM(926,3732) = 1727916
