Lets's calculate LCM of 28,187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2710/28,7944/187 is 2/5236
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 28,187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,187) = ( 28 × 187 ) / 1
LCM(28,187) = 5236 / 1
LCM(28,187) = 5236
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
