Lets's calculate LCM of 972,9694
2 | 972, 9694 |
486, 4847 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 486 x 4847 = 4711284
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4711284
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8300/972,4588/9694 is 4/4711284
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 972,9694 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,9694) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,9694) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(972,9694) = ( 972 × 9694 ) / 2
LCM(972,9694) = 9422568 / 2
LCM(972,9694) = 4711284
