Lets's calculate LCM of 362,476
2 | 362, 476 |
181, 238 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 181 x 238 = 86156
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/86156
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9735/362,1438/476 is 1/86156
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 362,476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(362,476) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(362,476) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(362,476) = ( 362 × 476 ) / 2
LCM(362,476) = 172312 / 2
LCM(362,476) = 86156
