Lets's calculate LCM of 183,384
3 | 183, 384 |
61, 128 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 61 x 128 = 23424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 946/183,355/384 is 1/23424
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 183,384 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(183,384) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(183,384) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(183,384) = ( 183 × 384 ) / 3
LCM(183,384) = 70272 / 3
LCM(183,384) = 23424
