Lets's calculate LCM of 966,708
2 | 966, 708 |
3 | 483, 354 |
161, 118 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 161 x 118 = 113988
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/113988
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3890/966,8690/708 is 10/113988
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 966,708 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,708) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,708) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(966,708) = ( 966 × 708 ) / 6
LCM(966,708) = 683928 / 6
LCM(966,708) = 113988
