Lets's calculate LCM of 874,8082
2 | 874, 8082 |
437, 4041 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 437 x 4041 = 3531834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/3531834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6640/874,3380/8082 is 20/3531834
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 874,8082 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(874,8082) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(874,8082) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(874,8082) = ( 874 × 8082 ) / 2
LCM(874,8082) = 7063668 / 2
LCM(874,8082) = 3531834
