Lets's calculate LCM of 382,976
2 | 382, 976 |
191, 488 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 191 x 488 = 186416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/186416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 536/382,6394/976 is 2/186416
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 382,976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(382,976) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(382,976) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(382,976) = ( 382 × 976 ) / 2
LCM(382,976) = 372832 / 2
LCM(382,976) = 186416
