Lets's calculate LCM of 771,8718
3 | 771, 8718 |
257, 2906 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 257 x 2906 = 2240526
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/2240526
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4280/771,8408/8718 is 8/2240526
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 771,8718 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(771,8718) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(771,8718) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(771,8718) = ( 771 × 8718 ) / 3
LCM(771,8718) = 6721578 / 3
LCM(771,8718) = 2240526
