Lets's calculate LCM of 856,6404
2 | 856, 6404 |
2 | 428, 3202 |
214, 1601 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 214 x 1601 = 1370456
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1370456
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6420/856,9298/6404 is 2/1370456
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 856,6404 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(856,6404) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(856,6404) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(856,6404) = ( 856 × 6404 ) / 4
LCM(856,6404) = 5481824 / 4
LCM(856,6404) = 1370456
