Lets's calculate LCM of 884,2166
2 | 884, 2166 |
442, 1083 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 442 x 1083 = 957372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/957372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 230/884,8706/2166 is 2/957372
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 884,2166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(884,2166) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(884,2166) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(884,2166) = ( 884 × 2166 ) / 2
LCM(884,2166) = 1914744 / 2
LCM(884,2166) = 957372
