Lets's calculate LCM of 116,412
2 | 116, 412 |
2 | 58, 206 |
29, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 29 x 103 = 11948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 427/116,299/412 is 1/11948
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 116,412 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(116,412) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(116,412) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(116,412) = ( 116 × 412 ) / 4
LCM(116,412) = 47792 / 4
LCM(116,412) = 11948
