Lets's calculate LCM of 886,864
2 | 886, 864 |
443, 432 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 443 x 432 = 382752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/382752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 856/886,6286/864 is 2/382752
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 886,864 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(886,864) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(886,864) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(886,864) = ( 886 × 864 ) / 2
LCM(886,864) = 765504 / 2
LCM(886,864) = 382752
