Lets's calculate LCM of 888,9312
2 | 888, 9312 |
2 | 444, 4656 |
2 | 222, 2328 |
3 | 111, 1164 |
37, 388 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 37 x 388 = 344544
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 79/344544
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5293/888,4977/9312 is 79/344544
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 888,9312 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,9312) = 24
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,9312) x common factors =24 x 1 = 24
LCM(888,9312) = ( 888 × 9312 ) / 24
LCM(888,9312) = 8269056 / 24
LCM(888,9312) = 344544
