Lets's calculate LCM of 318,5336
2 | 318, 5336 |
159, 2668 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 159 x 2668 = 848424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/848424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 792/318,5607/5336 is 9/848424
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 318,5336 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(318,5336) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(318,5336) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(318,5336) = ( 318 × 5336 ) / 2
LCM(318,5336) = 1696848 / 2
LCM(318,5336) = 848424
