Lets's calculate LCM of 896,8562
2 | 896, 8562 |
448, 4281 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 448 x 4281 = 3835776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/3835776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3072/896,1692/8562 is 12/3835776
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 896,8562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(896,8562) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(896,8562) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(896,8562) = ( 896 × 8562 ) / 2
LCM(896,8562) = 7671552 / 2
LCM(896,8562) = 3835776
