Lets's calculate LCM of 88,1008
2 | 88, 1008 |
2 | 44, 504 |
2 | 22, 252 |
11, 126 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 126 = 11088
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 43/11088
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 860/88,473/1008 is 43/11088
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 88,1008 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,1008) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,1008) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(88,1008) = ( 88 × 1008 ) / 8
LCM(88,1008) = 88704 / 8
LCM(88,1008) = 11088
