Lets's calculate LCM of 508,9372
2 | 508, 9372 |
2 | 254, 4686 |
127, 2343 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 127 x 2343 = 1190244
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1190244
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8832/508,8871/9372 is 3/1190244
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 508,9372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(508,9372) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(508,9372) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(508,9372) = ( 508 × 9372 ) / 4
LCM(508,9372) = 4760976 / 4
LCM(508,9372) = 1190244
