So the greatest common factor 3234,8238 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 94,464
2 | 94, 464 |
47, 232 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 47 x 232 = 21808
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/21808
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3234/94,8238/464 is 6/21808
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 94,464 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(94,464) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(94,464) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(94,464) = ( 94 × 464 ) / 2
LCM(94,464) = 43616 / 2
LCM(94,464) = 21808
