11 | 869, 8173 |
79, 743 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 79 x 743 = 645667
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/645667
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4630/869,7238/8173 is 2/645667
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 869,8173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(869,8173) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(869,8173) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(869,8173) = ( 869 × 8173 ) / 11
LCM(869,8173) = 7102337 / 11
LCM(869,8173) = 645667
