Lets's calculate LCM of 152,1924
2 | 152, 1924 |
2 | 76, 962 |
38, 481 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 38 x 481 = 73112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/73112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7122/152,7887/1924 is 3/73112
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 152,1924 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(152,1924) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(152,1924) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(152,1924) = ( 152 × 1924 ) / 4
LCM(152,1924) = 292448 / 4
LCM(152,1924) = 73112
