So the greatest common factor 528,396 is 132.
Lets's calculate LCM of 866,158
2 | 866, 158 |
433, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 433 x 79 = 68414
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 132/68414
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 528/866,396/158 is 132/68414
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 866,158 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(866,158) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(866,158) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(866,158) = ( 866 × 158 ) / 2
LCM(866,158) = 136828 / 2
LCM(866,158) = 68414
