Lets's calculate LCM of 968,408
2 | 968, 408 |
2 | 484, 204 |
2 | 242, 102 |
121, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 121 x 51 = 49368
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/49368
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 605/968,924/408 is 11/49368
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 968,408 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(968,408) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(968,408) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(968,408) = ( 968 × 408 ) / 8
LCM(968,408) = 394944 / 8
LCM(968,408) = 49368
