So the greatest common factor 762,864 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 960,535
5 | 960, 535 |
192, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 192 x 107 = 102720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/102720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 762/960,864/535 is 6/102720
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 960,535 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(960,535) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(960,535) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(960,535) = ( 960 × 535 ) / 5
LCM(960,535) = 513600 / 5
LCM(960,535) = 102720
