We found the factors 8458,1836 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8458,1836 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 584,9968
2 | 584, 9968 |
2 | 292, 4984 |
2 | 146, 2492 |
73, 1246 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 73 x 1246 = 727664
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/727664
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8458/584,1836/9968 is 2/727664
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 584,9968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(584,9968) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(584,9968) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(584,9968) = ( 584 × 9968 ) / 8
LCM(584,9968) = 5821312 / 8
LCM(584,9968) = 727664
