Lets's calculate LCM of 572,848
2 | 572, 848 |
2 | 286, 424 |
143, 212 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 143 x 212 = 121264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/121264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2867/572,7974/848 is 1/121264
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 572,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,848) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,848) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(572,848) = ( 572 × 848 ) / 4
LCM(572,848) = 485056 / 4
LCM(572,848) = 121264
