Lets's calculate LCM of 858,7946
2 | 858, 7946 |
429, 3973 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 429 x 3973 = 3408834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3408834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5511/858,5613/7946 is 3/3408834
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 858,7946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(858,7946) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(858,7946) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(858,7946) = ( 858 × 7946 ) / 2
LCM(858,7946) = 6817668 / 2
LCM(858,7946) = 3408834
