Lets's calculate LCM of 772,1968
2 | 772, 1968 |
2 | 386, 984 |
193, 492 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 193 x 492 = 379824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/379824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2543/772,2271/1968 is 1/379824
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 772,1968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(772,1968) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(772,1968) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(772,1968) = ( 772 × 1968 ) / 4
LCM(772,1968) = 1519296 / 4
LCM(772,1968) = 379824
