Lets's calculate LCM of 996,1284
2 | 996, 1284 |
2 | 498, 642 |
3 | 249, 321 |
83, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 83 x 107 = 106572
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 71/106572
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4615/996,8236/1284 is 71/106572
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 996,1284 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(996,1284) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(996,1284) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(996,1284) = ( 996 × 1284 ) / 12
LCM(996,1284) = 1278864 / 12
LCM(996,1284) = 106572
