Lets's calculate LCM of 448,236
2 | 448, 236 |
2 | 224, 118 |
112, 59 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 112 x 59 = 26432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5982/448,7607/236 is 1/26432
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 448,236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(448,236) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(448,236) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(448,236) = ( 448 × 236 ) / 4
LCM(448,236) = 105728 / 4
LCM(448,236) = 26432
