Lets's calculate LCM of 621,948
3 | 621, 948 |
207, 316 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 207 x 316 = 196236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/196236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5826/621,2732/948 is 2/196236
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 621,948 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(621,948) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(621,948) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(621,948) = ( 621 × 948 ) / 3
LCM(621,948) = 588708 / 3
LCM(621,948) = 196236
