Lets's calculate LCM of 36,688
| 2 | 36, 688 |
| 2 | 18, 344 |
| 9, 172 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 9 x 172 = 6192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8202/36,1570/688 is 2/6192
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 36,688 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,688) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(36,688) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(36,688) = ( 36 × 688 ) / 4
LCM(36,688) = 24768 / 4
LCM(36,688) = 6192
