Lets's calculate LCM of 392,4584
2 | 392, 4584 |
2 | 196, 2292 |
2 | 98, 1146 |
49, 573 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 49 x 573 = 224616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/224616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5875/392,1224/4584 is 1/224616
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 392,4584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(392,4584) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(392,4584) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(392,4584) = ( 392 × 4584 ) / 8
LCM(392,4584) = 1796928 / 8
LCM(392,4584) = 224616
