Lets's calculate LCM of 796,8412
2 | 796, 8412 |
2 | 398, 4206 |
199, 2103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 199 x 2103 = 1673988
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/1673988
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 22/796,4158/8412 is 22/1673988
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 796,8412 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(796,8412) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(796,8412) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(796,8412) = ( 796 × 8412 ) / 4
LCM(796,8412) = 6695952 / 4
LCM(796,8412) = 1673988
