Lets's calculate LCM of 986,868
2 | 986, 868 |
493, 434 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 493 x 434 = 427924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/427924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1792/986,6221/868 is 1/427924
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 986,868 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,868) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,868) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(986,868) = ( 986 × 868 ) / 2
LCM(986,868) = 855848 / 2
LCM(986,868) = 427924
