Lets's calculate LCM of 958,992
2 | 958, 992 |
479, 496 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 479 x 496 = 475168
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/475168
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5684/958,9726/992 is 2/475168
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 958,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(958,992) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(958,992) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(958,992) = ( 958 × 992 ) / 2
LCM(958,992) = 950336 / 2
LCM(958,992) = 475168
