So the greatest common factor 3748,9428 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,450
2 | 96, 450 |
3 | 48, 225 |
16, 75 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 16 x 75 = 7200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/7200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3748/96,9428/450 is 4/7200
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 96,450 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,450) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,450) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(96,450) = ( 96 × 450 ) / 6
LCM(96,450) = 43200 / 6
LCM(96,450) = 7200
