Lets's calculate LCM of 628,3192
2 | 628, 3192 |
2 | 314, 1596 |
157, 798 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 157 x 798 = 501144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/501144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8762/628,7138/3192 is 2/501144
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 628,3192 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(628,3192) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(628,3192) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(628,3192) = ( 628 × 3192 ) / 4
LCM(628,3192) = 2004576 / 4
LCM(628,3192) = 501144
