So the greatest common factor 3813,5532 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 186,620
2 | 186, 620 |
31 | 93, 310 |
3, 10 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 31 x 3 x 10 = 1860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3813/186,5532/620 is 3/1860
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 186,620 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(186,620) = 62
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(186,620) x common factors =62 x 1 = 62
LCM(186,620) = ( 186 × 620 ) / 62
LCM(186,620) = 115320 / 62
LCM(186,620) = 1860
