Lets's calculate LCM of 132,1842
2 | 132, 1842 |
3 | 66, 921 |
22, 307 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 22 x 307 = 40524
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/40524
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8127/132,9738/1842 is 9/40524
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 132,1842 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(132,1842) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(132,1842) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(132,1842) = ( 132 × 1842 ) / 6
LCM(132,1842) = 243144 / 6
LCM(132,1842) = 40524
