Lets's calculate LCM of 189,4137
3 | 189, 4137 |
7 | 63, 1379 |
9, 197 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 9 x 197 = 37233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/37233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7626/189,8812/4137 is 2/37233
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 189,4137 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,4137) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,4137) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(189,4137) = ( 189 × 4137 ) / 21
LCM(189,4137) = 781893 / 21
LCM(189,4137) = 37233
