Lets's calculate LCM of 447,1596
3 | 447, 1596 |
149, 532 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 149 x 532 = 237804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/237804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8796/447,2036/1596 is 4/237804
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 447,1596 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(447,1596) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(447,1596) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(447,1596) = ( 447 × 1596 ) / 3
LCM(447,1596) = 713412 / 3
LCM(447,1596) = 237804
