Lets's calculate LCM of 776,992
2 | 776, 992 |
2 | 388, 496 |
2 | 194, 248 |
97, 124 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 97 x 124 = 96224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/96224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 612/776,648/992 is 36/96224
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 776,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(776,992) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(776,992) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(776,992) = ( 776 × 992 ) / 8
LCM(776,992) = 769792 / 8
LCM(776,992) = 96224
