2 | 918, 3718 |
459, 1859 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 459 x 1859 = 1706562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1706562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6422/918,8924/3718 is 2/1706562
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 918,3718 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(918,3718) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(918,3718) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(918,3718) = ( 918 × 3718 ) / 2
LCM(918,3718) = 3413124 / 2
LCM(918,3718) = 1706562
