Lets's calculate LCM of 364,3166
2 | 364, 3166 |
182, 1583 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 182 x 1583 = 576212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/576212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9986/364,1708/3166 is 2/576212
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 364,3166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(364,3166) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(364,3166) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(364,3166) = ( 364 × 3166 ) / 2
LCM(364,3166) = 1152424 / 2
LCM(364,3166) = 576212
