Lets's calculate LCM of 348,7626
2 | 348, 7626 |
3 | 174, 3813 |
58, 1271 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 58 x 1271 = 442308
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/442308
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5882/348,8236/7626 is 2/442308
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 348,7626 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(348,7626) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(348,7626) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(348,7626) = ( 348 × 7626 ) / 6
LCM(348,7626) = 2653848 / 6
LCM(348,7626) = 442308
