Lets's calculate LCM of 84,472
2 | 84, 472 |
2 | 42, 236 |
21, 118 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 21 x 118 = 9912
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9912
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6437/84,6566/472 is 1/9912
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 84,472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,472) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(84,472) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(84,472) = ( 84 × 472 ) / 4
LCM(84,472) = 39648 / 4
LCM(84,472) = 9912
