Lets's calculate LCM of 182,308
2 | 182, 308 |
7 | 91, 154 |
13, 22 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 13 x 22 = 4004
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/4004
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 594/182,3969/308 is 27/4004
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 182,308 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(182,308) = 14
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(182,308) x common factors =14 x 1 = 14
LCM(182,308) = ( 182 × 308 ) / 14
LCM(182,308) = 56056 / 14
LCM(182,308) = 4004
