Lets's calculate LCM of 94,432
2 | 94, 432 |
47, 216 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 47 x 216 = 20304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/20304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5992/94,1785/432 is 7/20304
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 94,432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(94,432) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(94,432) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(94,432) = ( 94 × 432 ) / 2
LCM(94,432) = 40608 / 2
LCM(94,432) = 20304
