We found the factors 8824,4144 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8824,4144 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 132,831
3 | 132, 831 |
44, 277 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 44 x 277 = 36564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/36564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8824/132,4144/831 is 8/36564
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 132,831 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(132,831) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(132,831) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(132,831) = ( 132 × 831 ) / 3
LCM(132,831) = 109692 / 3
LCM(132,831) = 36564
