Lets's calculate LCM of 572,422
2 | 572, 422 |
286, 211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 286 x 211 = 120692
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/120692
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8412/572,8475/422 is 3/120692
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 572,422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(572,422) = ( 572 × 422 ) / 2
LCM(572,422) = 241384 / 2
LCM(572,422) = 120692
