Lets's calculate LCM of 888,186
2 | 888, 186 |
3 | 444, 93 |
148, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 148 x 31 = 27528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/27528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5313/888,8232/186 is 21/27528
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 888,186 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,186) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,186) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(888,186) = ( 888 × 186 ) / 6
LCM(888,186) = 165168 / 6
LCM(888,186) = 27528
