Lets's calculate LCM of 462,6441
3 | 462, 6441 |
154, 2147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 154 x 2147 = 991914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/991914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7802/462,8852/6441 is 2/991914
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 462,6441 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(462,6441) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(462,6441) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(462,6441) = ( 462 × 6441 ) / 3
LCM(462,6441) = 2975742 / 3
LCM(462,6441) = 991914
