So the greatest common factor 3272,1896 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 892,6758
2 | 892, 6758 |
446, 3379 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 446 x 3379 = 3014068
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/3014068
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3272/892,1896/6758 is 8/3014068
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 892,6758 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(892,6758) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(892,6758) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(892,6758) = ( 892 × 6758 ) / 2
LCM(892,6758) = 6028136 / 2
LCM(892,6758) = 3014068
