Lets's calculate LCM of 768,5998
2 | 768, 5998 |
384, 2999 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 384 x 2999 = 2303232
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2303232
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5096/768,5919/5998 is 1/2303232
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 768,5998 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(768,5998) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(768,5998) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(768,5998) = ( 768 × 5998 ) / 2
LCM(768,5998) = 4606464 / 2
LCM(768,5998) = 2303232
