So the greatest common factor 1206,3575 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 388,3432
2 | 388, 3432 |
2 | 194, 1716 |
97, 858 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 97 x 858 = 332904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/332904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1206/388,3575/3432 is 1/332904
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 388,3432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(388,3432) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(388,3432) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(388,3432) = ( 388 × 3432 ) / 4
LCM(388,3432) = 1331616 / 4
LCM(388,3432) = 332904
