Lets's calculate LCM of 778,638
2 | 778, 638 |
389, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 389 x 319 = 248182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/248182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9332/778,1040/638 is 4/248182
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 778,638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(778,638) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(778,638) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(778,638) = ( 778 × 638 ) / 2
LCM(778,638) = 496364 / 2
LCM(778,638) = 248182
