Lets's calculate LCM of 834,5721
3 | 834, 5721 |
278, 1907 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 278 x 1907 = 1590438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1590438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7838/834,8764/5721 is 2/1590438
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 834,5721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(834,5721) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(834,5721) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(834,5721) = ( 834 × 5721 ) / 3
LCM(834,5721) = 4771314 / 3
LCM(834,5721) = 1590438
