Lets's calculate LCM of 504,968
2 | 504, 968 |
2 | 252, 484 |
2 | 126, 242 |
63, 121 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 63 x 121 = 60984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/60984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3595/504,9645/968 is 5/60984
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 504,968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(504,968) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(504,968) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(504,968) = ( 504 × 968 ) / 8
LCM(504,968) = 487872 / 8
LCM(504,968) = 60984
