So the greatest common factor 2618,8834 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 872,7804
2 | 872, 7804 |
2 | 436, 3902 |
218, 1951 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 218 x 1951 = 1701272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/1701272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2618/872,8834/7804 is 14/1701272
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 872,7804 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(872,7804) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(872,7804) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(872,7804) = ( 872 × 7804 ) / 4
LCM(872,7804) = 6805088 / 4
LCM(872,7804) = 1701272
