Lets's calculate LCM of 463,188
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 87044
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/87044
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1833/463,1071/188 is 3/87044
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 463,188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(463,188) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(463,188) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(463,188) = ( 463 × 188 ) / 1
LCM(463,188) = 87044 / 1
LCM(463,188) = 87044
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
