Lets's calculate LCM of 886,3712
2 | 886, 3712 |
443, 1856 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 443 x 1856 = 1644416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1644416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2687/886,2685/3712 is 1/1644416
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 886,3712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(886,3712) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(886,3712) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(886,3712) = ( 886 × 3712 ) / 2
LCM(886,3712) = 3288832 / 2
LCM(886,3712) = 1644416
