Lets's calculate LCM of 94,518
2 | 94, 518 |
47, 259 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 47 x 259 = 24346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/24346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9638/94,7388/518 is 2/24346
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 94,518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(94,518) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(94,518) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(94,518) = ( 94 × 518 ) / 2
LCM(94,518) = 48692 / 2
LCM(94,518) = 24346
