Lets's calculate LCM of 788,5972
2 | 788, 5972 |
2 | 394, 2986 |
197, 1493 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 197 x 1493 = 1176484
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1176484
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8362/788,7064/5972 is 2/1176484
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 788,5972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(788,5972) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(788,5972) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(788,5972) = ( 788 × 5972 ) / 4
LCM(788,5972) = 4705936 / 4
LCM(788,5972) = 1176484
