Lets's calculate LCM of 872,438
2 | 872, 438 |
436, 219 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 436 x 219 = 190968
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/190968
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2299/872,8351/438 is 1/190968
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 872,438 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(872,438) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(872,438) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(872,438) = ( 872 × 438 ) / 2
LCM(872,438) = 381936 / 2
LCM(872,438) = 190968
