Lets's calculate LCM of 416,646
2 | 416, 646 |
208, 323 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 208 x 323 = 134368
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/134368
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6012/416,8786/646 is 2/134368
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 416,646 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(416,646) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(416,646) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(416,646) = ( 416 × 646 ) / 2
LCM(416,646) = 268736 / 2
LCM(416,646) = 134368
