Lets's calculate LCM of 844,3962
2 | 844, 3962 |
422, 1981 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 422 x 1981 = 1671964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1671964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2512/844,1911/3962 is 1/1671964
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 844,3962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(844,3962) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(844,3962) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(844,3962) = ( 844 × 3962 ) / 2
LCM(844,3962) = 3343928 / 2
LCM(844,3962) = 1671964
