Lets's calculate LCM of 940,152
2 | 940, 152 |
2 | 470, 76 |
235, 38 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 235 x 38 = 35720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/35720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 934/940,516/152 is 2/35720
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 940,152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(940,152) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(940,152) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(940,152) = ( 940 × 152 ) / 4
LCM(940,152) = 142880 / 4
LCM(940,152) = 35720
