Lets's calculate LCM of 148,3714
2 | 148, 3714 |
74, 1857 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 74 x 1857 = 274836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/274836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7460/148,2424/3714 is 4/274836
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 148,3714 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(148,3714) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(148,3714) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(148,3714) = ( 148 × 3714 ) / 2
LCM(148,3714) = 549672 / 2
LCM(148,3714) = 274836
