Lets's calculate LCM of 988,8642
2 | 988, 8642 |
494, 4321 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 494 x 4321 = 4269148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4269148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7597/988,5012/8642 is 1/4269148
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 988,8642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(988,8642) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(988,8642) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(988,8642) = ( 988 × 8642 ) / 2
LCM(988,8642) = 8538296 / 2
LCM(988,8642) = 4269148
