Lets's calculate LCM of 88,744
2 | 88, 744 |
2 | 44, 372 |
2 | 22, 186 |
11, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 93 = 8184
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8184
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 844/88,597/744 is 1/8184
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 88,744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,744) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,744) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(88,744) = ( 88 × 744 ) / 8
LCM(88,744) = 65472 / 8
LCM(88,744) = 8184
