Lets's calculate LCM of 864,7824
2 | 864, 7824 |
2 | 432, 3912 |
2 | 216, 1956 |
2 | 108, 978 |
3 | 54, 489 |
18, 163 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 18 x 163 = 140832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/140832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5987/864,7123/7824 is 1/140832
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 864,7824 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(864,7824) = 48
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(864,7824) x common factors =48 x 1 = 48
LCM(864,7824) = ( 864 × 7824 ) / 48
LCM(864,7824) = 6759936 / 48
LCM(864,7824) = 140832
