Simplifying Complex Fractions 82/36 ÷ 16/16

82/36 ÷ 16/16 = 82/36 ÷ 16/16

Method 1 : LCM Multiplication

The LCM of 36,16 (denominators of the fractions) is 144

Finding LCM of 36,16 by Common Division

Arrange the Inputs 36,16 in a horizontal line separated by commas and divide them with a prime number. Note the quotients in the next row and divide with quotients with prime numbers again. Continue the process until you have all co primes in the last.

2 36, 16
2 18, 8
9, 4

As all the numbers left in the last row are co primes you need not do the common division process further.

To obtain the Least Common Multiple, multiply the prime numbers with which you have divided the given numbers and the co primes in the last row i.e. 2 x 2 x 9 x 4 = 144

Therefore, LCM of 36,16 is 144

Finding LCM of 36,16 using GCF Formula

Step1:

Let's calculate the LCM of first two numbers

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a x b) / GCF(a,b)

GCF(36, 16) = 4

LCM(36, 16) = ( 36 x 16 ) / 4

LCM(36, 16) = 576 / 4

LCM(36, 16) = 144

LCM of 36,16 is 144

Multiply top and bottom by the LCM

144 x 82/36 ÷ 144 x 16/16= 328/144
