Lets's calculate LCM of 136,2710
2 | 136, 2710 |
68, 1355 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 68 x 1355 = 184280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/184280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4962/136,6936/2710 is 6/184280
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 136,2710 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(136,2710) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(136,2710) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(136,2710) = ( 136 × 2710 ) / 2
LCM(136,2710) = 368560 / 2
LCM(136,2710) = 184280
