So the greatest common factor 1958,4120 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 850,9552
2 | 850, 9552 |
425, 4776 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 425 x 4776 = 4059600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4059600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1958/850,4120/9552 is 2/4059600
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 850,9552 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(850,9552) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(850,9552) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(850,9552) = ( 850 × 9552 ) / 2
LCM(850,9552) = 8119200 / 2
LCM(850,9552) = 4059600
