Lets's calculate LCM of 913,3344
11 | 913, 3344 |
83, 304 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 83 x 304 = 277552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/277552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 868/913,6040/3344 is 4/277552
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 913,3344 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(913,3344) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(913,3344) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(913,3344) = ( 913 × 3344 ) / 11
LCM(913,3344) = 3053072 / 11
LCM(913,3344) = 277552
