Lets's calculate LCM of 164,9236
2 | 164, 9236 |
2 | 82, 4618 |
41, 2309 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 41 x 2309 = 378676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/378676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6601/164,4917/9236 is 1/378676
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 164,9236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(164,9236) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(164,9236) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(164,9236) = ( 164 × 9236 ) / 4
LCM(164,9236) = 1514704 / 4
LCM(164,9236) = 378676
