Lets's calculate LCM of 932,8462
2 | 932, 8462 |
466, 4231 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 466 x 4231 = 3943292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3943292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1724/932,4415/8462 is 1/3943292
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 932,8462 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(932,8462) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(932,8462) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(932,8462) = ( 932 × 8462 ) / 2
LCM(932,8462) = 7886584 / 2
LCM(932,8462) = 3943292
