Lets's calculate LCM of 46,6187
23 | 46, 6187 |
2, 269 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 23 x 2 x 269 = 12374
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 292/12374
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 876/46,584/6187 is 292/12374
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 46,6187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,6187) = 23
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,6187) x common factors =23 x 1 = 23
LCM(46,6187) = ( 46 × 6187 ) / 23
LCM(46,6187) = 284602 / 23
LCM(46,6187) = 12374
