Lets's calculate LCM of 880,9324
2 | 880, 9324 |
2 | 440, 4662 |
220, 2331 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 220 x 2331 = 2051280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/2051280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6291/880,5931/9324 is 9/2051280
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 880,9324 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(880,9324) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(880,9324) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(880,9324) = ( 880 × 9324 ) / 4
LCM(880,9324) = 8205120 / 4
LCM(880,9324) = 2051280
