Lets's calculate LCM of 5436,8874
2 | 5436, 8874 |
3 | 2718, 4437 |
3 | 906, 1479 |
302, 493 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 302 x 493 = 2679948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2679948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 877/5436,200/8874 is 1/2679948
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 5436,8874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5436,8874) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5436,8874) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(5436,8874) = ( 5436 × 8874 ) / 18
LCM(5436,8874) = 48239064 / 18
LCM(5436,8874) = 2679948
