Lets's calculate LCM of 912,6532
2 | 912, 6532 |
2 | 456, 3266 |
228, 1633 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 228 x 1633 = 1489296
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1489296
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1004/912,8512/6532 is 4/1489296
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 912,6532 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(912,6532) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(912,6532) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(912,6532) = ( 912 × 6532 ) / 4
LCM(912,6532) = 5957184 / 4
LCM(912,6532) = 1489296
