So the greatest common factor 5274,6432 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,918
3 | 99, 918 |
3 | 33, 306 |
11, 102 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 11 x 102 = 10098
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/10098
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5274/99,6432/918 is 6/10098
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 99,918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,918) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,918) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(99,918) = ( 99 × 918 ) / 9
LCM(99,918) = 90882 / 9
LCM(99,918) = 10098
