Lets's calculate LCM of 852,1466
2 | 852, 1466 |
426, 733 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 426 x 733 = 624516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/624516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9612/852,8079/1466 is 3/624516
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 852,1466 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,1466) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,1466) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(852,1466) = ( 852 × 1466 ) / 2
LCM(852,1466) = 1249032 / 2
LCM(852,1466) = 624516
