So the greatest common factor 7148,4008 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 944,1158
2 | 944, 1158 |
472, 579 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 472 x 579 = 546576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/546576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7148/944,4008/1158 is 4/546576
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 944,1158 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(944,1158) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(944,1158) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(944,1158) = ( 944 × 1158 ) / 2
LCM(944,1158) = 1093152 / 2
LCM(944,1158) = 546576
