Lets's calculate LCM of 544,164
2 | 544, 164 |
2 | 272, 82 |
136, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 136 x 41 = 22304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9243/544,1531/164 is 1/22304
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 544,164 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(544,164) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(544,164) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(544,164) = ( 544 × 164 ) / 4
LCM(544,164) = 89216 / 4
LCM(544,164) = 22304
