Lets's calculate LCM of 540,812
2 | 540, 812 |
2 | 270, 406 |
135, 203 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 135 x 203 = 109620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/109620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8024/540,7486/812 is 2/109620
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 540,812 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(540,812) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(540,812) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(540,812) = ( 540 × 812 ) / 4
LCM(540,812) = 438480 / 4
LCM(540,812) = 109620
