Lets's calculate LCM of 194,8738
2 | 194, 8738 |
97, 4369 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 97 x 4369 = 847586
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/847586
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8512/194,3034/8738 is 2/847586
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 194,8738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(194,8738) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(194,8738) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(194,8738) = ( 194 × 8738 ) / 2
LCM(194,8738) = 1695172 / 2
LCM(194,8738) = 847586
