Lets's calculate LCM of 848,8510
2 | 848, 8510 |
424, 4255 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 424 x 4255 = 3608240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3608240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6021/848,8556/8510 is 3/3608240
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 848,8510 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,8510) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,8510) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(848,8510) = ( 848 × 8510 ) / 2
LCM(848,8510) = 7216480 / 2
LCM(848,8510) = 3608240
