Lets's calculate LCM of 392,608
2 | 392, 608 |
2 | 196, 304 |
2 | 98, 152 |
49, 76 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 49 x 76 = 29792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/29792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1426/392,2967/608 is 23/29792
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 392,608 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(392,608) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(392,608) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(392,608) = ( 392 × 608 ) / 8
LCM(392,608) = 238336 / 8
LCM(392,608) = 29792
