Lets's calculate LCM of 196,4388
2 | 196, 4388 |
2 | 98, 2194 |
49, 1097 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 49 x 1097 = 215012
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/215012
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7172/196,4067/4388 is 1/215012
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 196,4388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(196,4388) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(196,4388) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(196,4388) = ( 196 × 4388 ) / 4
LCM(196,4388) = 860048 / 4
LCM(196,4388) = 215012
