Lets's calculate LCM of 867,5964
3 | 867, 5964 |
289, 1988 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 289 x 1988 = 1723596
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1723596
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2465/867,4970/5964 is 5/1723596
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 867,5964 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,5964) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(867,5964) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(867,5964) = ( 867 × 5964 ) / 3
LCM(867,5964) = 5170788 / 3
LCM(867,5964) = 1723596
