Lets's calculate LCM of 964,7150
2 | 964, 7150 |
482, 3575 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 482 x 3575 = 3446300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3446300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 45/964,3423/7150 is 3/3446300
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 964,7150 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,7150) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,7150) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(964,7150) = ( 964 × 7150 ) / 2
LCM(964,7150) = 6892600 / 2
LCM(964,7150) = 3446300
