Lets's calculate LCM of 921,8448
3 | 921, 8448 |
307, 2816 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 307 x 2816 = 2593536
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2593536
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1100/921,3578/8448 is 2/2593536
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 921,8448 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(921,8448) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(921,8448) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(921,8448) = ( 921 × 8448 ) / 3
LCM(921,8448) = 7780608 / 3
LCM(921,8448) = 2593536
