Lets's calculate LCM of 188,1252
2 | 188, 1252 |
2 | 94, 626 |
47, 313 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 47 x 313 = 58844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/58844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7398/188,7618/1252 is 2/58844
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 188,1252 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(188,1252) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(188,1252) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(188,1252) = ( 188 × 1252 ) / 4
LCM(188,1252) = 235376 / 4
LCM(188,1252) = 58844
