Lets's calculate LCM of 879,7677
3 | 879, 7677 |
293, 2559 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 293 x 2559 = 2249361
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2249361
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7304/879,5230/7677 is 2/2249361
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 879,7677 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,7677) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,7677) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(879,7677) = ( 879 × 7677 ) / 3
LCM(879,7677) = 6748083 / 3
LCM(879,7677) = 2249361
