Lets's calculate LCM of 84,902
2 | 84, 902 |
42, 451 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 42 x 451 = 37884
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/37884
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7302/84,9532/902 is 2/37884
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 84,902 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,902) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(84,902) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(84,902) = ( 84 × 902 ) / 2
LCM(84,902) = 75768 / 2
LCM(84,902) = 37884
