Lets's calculate LCM of 894,5812
2 | 894, 5812 |
447, 2906 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 447 x 2906 = 2597964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2597964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3801/894,5112/5812 is 3/2597964
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 894,5812 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,5812) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,5812) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(894,5812) = ( 894 × 5812 ) / 2
LCM(894,5812) = 5195928 / 2
LCM(894,5812) = 2597964
