So the greatest common factor 46,8395 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 204,6168
2 | 204, 6168 |
2 | 102, 3084 |
3 | 51, 1542 |
17, 514 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 17 x 514 = 104856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/104856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/204,8395/6168 is 23/104856
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 204,6168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(204,6168) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(204,6168) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(204,6168) = ( 204 × 6168 ) / 12
LCM(204,6168) = 1258272 / 12
LCM(204,6168) = 104856
