2 | 678, 7784 |
339, 3892 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 339 x 3892 = 2638776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2638776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2139/678,1159/7784 is 1/2638776
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 678,7784 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,7784) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,7784) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(678,7784) = ( 678 × 7784 ) / 2
LCM(678,7784) = 5277552 / 2
LCM(678,7784) = 2638776
