Lets's calculate LCM of 852,5464
2 | 852, 5464 |
2 | 426, 2732 |
213, 1366 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 213 x 1366 = 1163832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1163832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3121/852,8488/5464 is 1/1163832
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 852,5464 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,5464) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,5464) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(852,5464) = ( 852 × 5464 ) / 4
LCM(852,5464) = 4655328 / 4
LCM(852,5464) = 1163832
