Lets's calculate LCM of 993,984
3 | 993, 984 |
331, 328 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 331 x 328 = 325704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/325704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5280/993,9574/984 is 2/325704
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 993,984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(993,984) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(993,984) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(993,984) = ( 993 × 984 ) / 3
LCM(993,984) = 977112 / 3
LCM(993,984) = 325704
