Lets's calculate LCM of 892,5956
2 | 892, 5956 |
2 | 446, 2978 |
223, 1489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 223 x 1489 = 1328188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1328188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1548/892,2823/5956 is 3/1328188
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 892,5956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(892,5956) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(892,5956) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(892,5956) = ( 892 × 5956 ) / 4
LCM(892,5956) = 5312752 / 4
LCM(892,5956) = 1328188
