So the greatest common factor 8220,5540 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 812,892
2 | 812, 892 |
2 | 406, 446 |
203, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 203 x 223 = 181076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/181076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8220/812,5540/892 is 20/181076
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 812,892 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(812,892) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(812,892) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(812,892) = ( 812 × 892 ) / 4
LCM(812,892) = 724304 / 4
LCM(812,892) = 181076
