Lets's calculate LCM of 128,984
2 | 128, 984 |
2 | 64, 492 |
2 | 32, 246 |
16, 123 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 16 x 123 = 15744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/15744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6678/128,3555/984 is 9/15744
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 128,984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(128,984) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(128,984) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(128,984) = ( 128 × 984 ) / 8
LCM(128,984) = 125952 / 8
LCM(128,984) = 15744
