Lets's calculate LCM of 459,1812
3 | 459, 1812 |
153, 604 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 153 x 604 = 277236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 62/277236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5890/459,8432/1812 is 62/277236
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 459,1812 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(459,1812) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(459,1812) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(459,1812) = ( 459 × 1812 ) / 3
LCM(459,1812) = 831708 / 3
LCM(459,1812) = 277236
