Lets's calculate LCM of 86,642
2 | 86, 642 |
43, 321 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 43 x 321 = 27606
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/27606
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 458/86,448/642 is 2/27606
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 86,642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,642) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(86,642) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(86,642) = ( 86 × 642 ) / 2
LCM(86,642) = 55212 / 2
LCM(86,642) = 27606
