Lets's calculate LCM of 420,1622
2 | 420, 1622 |
210, 811 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 210 x 811 = 340620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/340620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8231/420,9948/1622 is 1/340620
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 420,1622 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,1622) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,1622) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(420,1622) = ( 420 × 1622 ) / 2
LCM(420,1622) = 681240 / 2
LCM(420,1622) = 340620
