So the greatest common factor 7194,9596 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 940,2332
2 | 940, 2332 |
2 | 470, 1166 |
235, 583 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 235 x 583 = 548020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/548020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7194/940,9596/2332 is 2/548020
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 940,2332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(940,2332) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(940,2332) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(940,2332) = ( 940 × 2332 ) / 4
LCM(940,2332) = 2192080 / 4
LCM(940,2332) = 548020
