Lets's calculate LCM of 672,8392
2 | 672, 8392 |
2 | 336, 4196 |
2 | 168, 2098 |
84, 1049 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 84 x 1049 = 704928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/704928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5848/672,9398/8392 is 2/704928
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 672,8392 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(672,8392) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(672,8392) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(672,8392) = ( 672 × 8392 ) / 8
LCM(672,8392) = 5639424 / 8
LCM(672,8392) = 704928
