Lets's calculate LCM of 272,8836
2 | 272, 8836 |
2 | 136, 4418 |
68, 2209 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 68 x 2209 = 600848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/600848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9936/272,3930/8836 is 6/600848
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 272,8836 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,8836) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(272,8836) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(272,8836) = ( 272 × 8836 ) / 4
LCM(272,8836) = 2403392 / 4
LCM(272,8836) = 600848
