Lets's calculate LCM of 608,9542
2 | 608, 9542 |
304, 4771 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 304 x 4771 = 2900768
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2900768
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3480/608,7855/9542 is 5/2900768
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 608,9542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(608,9542) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(608,9542) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(608,9542) = ( 608 × 9542 ) / 2
LCM(608,9542) = 5801536 / 2
LCM(608,9542) = 2900768
