Lets's calculate LCM of 772,672
2 | 772, 672 |
2 | 386, 336 |
193, 168 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 193 x 168 = 129696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/129696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8455/772,1256/672 is 1/129696
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 772,672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(772,672) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(772,672) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(772,672) = ( 772 × 672 ) / 4
LCM(772,672) = 518784 / 4
LCM(772,672) = 129696
