Lets's calculate LCM of 921,2508
3 | 921, 2508 |
307, 836 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 307 x 836 = 769956
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 116/769956
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4408/921,8236/2508 is 116/769956
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 921,2508 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(921,2508) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(921,2508) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(921,2508) = ( 921 × 2508 ) / 3
LCM(921,2508) = 2309868 / 3
LCM(921,2508) = 769956
