Lets's calculate LCM of 118,992
2 | 118, 992 |
59, 496 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 496 = 58528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/58528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8240/118,8379/992 is 1/58528
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 118,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(118,992) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(118,992) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(118,992) = ( 118 × 992 ) / 2
LCM(118,992) = 117056 / 2
LCM(118,992) = 58528
