So the greatest common factor 5360,1086 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 842,9628
2 | 842, 9628 |
421, 4814 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 421 x 4814 = 4053388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4053388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5360/842,1086/9628 is 2/4053388
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 842,9628 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,9628) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,9628) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(842,9628) = ( 842 × 9628 ) / 2
LCM(842,9628) = 8106776 / 2
LCM(842,9628) = 4053388
