So the greatest common factor 825,222 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,3704
2 | 46, 3704 |
23, 1852 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 1852 = 85192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/85192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 825/46,222/3704 is 3/85192
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 46,3704 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,3704) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,3704) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(46,3704) = ( 46 × 3704 ) / 2
LCM(46,3704) = 170384 / 2
LCM(46,3704) = 85192
