Lets's calculate LCM of 58,772
2 | 58, 772 |
29, 386 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 386 = 22388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/22388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9435/58,3179/772 is 17/22388
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 58,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(58,772) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(58,772) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(58,772) = ( 58 × 772 ) / 2
LCM(58,772) = 44776 / 2
LCM(58,772) = 22388
