Lets's calculate LCM of 388,7358
2 | 388, 7358 |
194, 3679 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 194 x 3679 = 1427452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1427452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9844/388,1746/7358 is 2/1427452
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 388,7358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(388,7358) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(388,7358) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(388,7358) = ( 388 × 7358 ) / 2
LCM(388,7358) = 2854904 / 2
LCM(388,7358) = 1427452
