Lets's calculate LCM of 186,2985
3 | 186, 2985 |
62, 995 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 62 x 995 = 185070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/185070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8004/186,7464/2985 is 12/185070
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 186,2985 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(186,2985) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(186,2985) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(186,2985) = ( 186 × 2985 ) / 3
LCM(186,2985) = 555210 / 3
LCM(186,2985) = 185070
