Lets's calculate LCM of 936,600
2 | 936, 600 |
2 | 468, 300 |
2 | 234, 150 |
3 | 117, 75 |
39, 25 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 39 x 25 = 23400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/23400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5860/936,1816/600 is 4/23400
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 936,600 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(936,600) = 24
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(936,600) x common factors =24 x 1 = 24
LCM(936,600) = ( 936 × 600 ) / 24
LCM(936,600) = 561600 / 24
LCM(936,600) = 23400
