2 | 678, 9174 |
3 | 339, 4587 |
113, 1529 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 113 x 1529 = 1036662
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1036662
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9348/678,4208/9174 is 4/1036662
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 678,9174 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,9174) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,9174) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(678,9174) = ( 678 × 9174 ) / 6
LCM(678,9174) = 6219972 / 6
LCM(678,9174) = 1036662
