Lets's calculate LCM of 868,8238
2 | 868, 8238 |
434, 4119 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 434 x 4119 = 3575292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3575292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7118/868,1397/8238 is 1/3575292
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 868,8238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(868,8238) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(868,8238) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(868,8238) = ( 868 × 8238 ) / 2
LCM(868,8238) = 7150584 / 2
LCM(868,8238) = 3575292
