Lets's calculate LCM of 362,5948
2 | 362, 5948 |
181, 2974 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 181 x 2974 = 1076588
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1076588
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3697/362,8636/5948 is 1/1076588
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 362,5948 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(362,5948) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(362,5948) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(362,5948) = ( 362 × 5948 ) / 2
LCM(362,5948) = 2153176 / 2
LCM(362,5948) = 1076588
