Lets's calculate LCM of 8666,5346
2 | 8666, 5346 |
4333, 2673 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 4333 x 2673 = 23164218
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/23164218
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 668/8666,308/5346 is 4/23164218
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 8666,5346 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(8666,5346) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(8666,5346) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(8666,5346) = ( 8666 × 5346 ) / 2
LCM(8666,5346) = 46328436 / 2
LCM(8666,5346) = 23164218
