Lets's calculate LCM of 987,5600
7 | 987, 5600 |
141, 800 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 141 x 800 = 789600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/789600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4334/987,6344/5600 is 2/789600
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 987,5600 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(987,5600) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(987,5600) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(987,5600) = ( 987 × 5600 ) / 7
LCM(987,5600) = 5527200 / 7
LCM(987,5600) = 789600
