Lets's calculate LCM of 776,3988
2 | 776, 3988 |
2 | 388, 1994 |
194, 997 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 194 x 997 = 773672
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/773672
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 553/776,9486/3988 is 1/773672
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 776,3988 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(776,3988) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(776,3988) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(776,3988) = ( 776 × 3988 ) / 4
LCM(776,3988) = 3094688 / 4
LCM(776,3988) = 773672
