Lets's calculate LCM of 867,9924
3 | 867, 9924 |
289, 3308 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 289 x 3308 = 2868036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2868036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4604/867,2352/9924 is 4/2868036
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 867,9924 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,9924) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(867,9924) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(867,9924) = ( 867 × 9924 ) / 3
LCM(867,9924) = 8604108 / 3
LCM(867,9924) = 2868036
