Lets's calculate LCM of 388,824
2 | 388, 824 |
2 | 194, 412 |
97, 206 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 97 x 206 = 79928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/79928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 860/388,579/824 is 1/79928
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 388,824 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(388,824) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(388,824) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(388,824) = ( 388 × 824 ) / 4
LCM(388,824) = 319712 / 4
LCM(388,824) = 79928
