Lets's calculate LCM of 812,958
2 | 812, 958 |
406, 479 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 406 x 479 = 388948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/388948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 305/812,4012/958 is 1/388948
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 812,958 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(812,958) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(812,958) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(812,958) = ( 812 × 958 ) / 2
LCM(812,958) = 777896 / 2
LCM(812,958) = 388948
