Lets's calculate LCM of 138,3876
2 | 138, 3876 |
3 | 69, 1938 |
23, 646 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 23 x 646 = 89148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/89148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7050/138,1278/3876 is 6/89148
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 138,3876 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(138,3876) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(138,3876) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(138,3876) = ( 138 × 3876 ) / 6
LCM(138,3876) = 534888 / 6
LCM(138,3876) = 89148
