Lets's calculate LCM of 834,8544
2 | 834, 8544 |
3 | 417, 4272 |
139, 1424 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 139 x 1424 = 1187616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1187616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6718/834,9256/8544 is 2/1187616
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 834,8544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(834,8544) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(834,8544) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(834,8544) = ( 834 × 8544 ) / 6
LCM(834,8544) = 7125696 / 6
LCM(834,8544) = 1187616
