Lets's calculate LCM of 458,636
2 | 458, 636 |
229, 318 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 229 x 318 = 145644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/145644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 219/458,9258/636 is 3/145644
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 458,636 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(458,636) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(458,636) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(458,636) = ( 458 × 636 ) / 2
LCM(458,636) = 291288 / 2
LCM(458,636) = 145644
