So the greatest common factor 814,224 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,543
3 | 36, 543 |
12, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 12 x 181 = 6516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 814/36,224/543 is 2/6516
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 36,543 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,543) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(36,543) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(36,543) = ( 36 × 543 ) / 3
LCM(36,543) = 19548 / 3
LCM(36,543) = 6516
