Lets's calculate LCM of 792,8792
2 | 792, 8792 |
2 | 396, 4396 |
2 | 198, 2198 |
99, 1099 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 99 x 1099 = 870408
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/870408
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3248/792,9252/8792 is 4/870408
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 792,8792 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(792,8792) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(792,8792) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(792,8792) = ( 792 × 8792 ) / 8
LCM(792,8792) = 6963264 / 8
LCM(792,8792) = 870408
