Lets's calculate LCM of 336,1848
2 | 336, 1848 |
2 | 168, 924 |
2 | 84, 462 |
3 | 42, 231 |
7 | 14, 77 |
2, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 11 = 3696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9608/336,5621/1848 is 1/3696
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 336,1848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(336,1848) = 168
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(336,1848) x common factors =168 x 1 = 168
LCM(336,1848) = ( 336 × 1848 ) / 168
LCM(336,1848) = 620928 / 168
LCM(336,1848) = 3696
