Lets's calculate LCM of 432,8646
2 | 432, 8646 |
3 | 216, 4323 |
72, 1441 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 72 x 1441 = 622512
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/622512
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2916/432,4961/8646 is 1/622512
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 432,8646 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(432,8646) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(432,8646) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(432,8646) = ( 432 × 8646 ) / 6
LCM(432,8646) = 3735072 / 6
LCM(432,8646) = 622512
