Lets's calculate LCM of 988,8752
2 | 988, 8752 |
2 | 494, 4376 |
247, 2188 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 247 x 2188 = 2161744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2161744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5119/988,7473/8752 is 1/2161744
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 988,8752 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(988,8752) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(988,8752) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(988,8752) = ( 988 × 8752 ) / 4
LCM(988,8752) = 8646976 / 4
LCM(988,8752) = 2161744
