Lets's calculate LCM of 632,184
2 | 632, 184 |
2 | 316, 92 |
2 | 158, 46 |
79, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 79 x 23 = 14536
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/14536
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5472/632,6224/184 is 16/14536
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 632,184 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(632,184) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(632,184) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(632,184) = ( 632 × 184 ) / 8
LCM(632,184) = 116288 / 8
LCM(632,184) = 14536
