So the greatest common factor 607,3978 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 442,8112
2 | 442, 8112 |
13 | 221, 4056 |
17, 312 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 17 x 312 = 137904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/137904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 607/442,3978/8112 is 1/137904
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 442,8112 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,8112) = 26
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,8112) x common factors =26 x 1 = 26
LCM(442,8112) = ( 442 × 8112 ) / 26
LCM(442,8112) = 3585504 / 26
LCM(442,8112) = 137904
