Lets's calculate LCM of 186,9856
2 | 186, 9856 |
93, 4928 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 93 x 4928 = 916608
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/916608
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 75/186,7086/9856 is 3/916608
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 186,9856 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(186,9856) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(186,9856) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(186,9856) = ( 186 × 9856 ) / 2
LCM(186,9856) = 1833216 / 2
LCM(186,9856) = 916608
