Lets's calculate LCM of 798,544
2 | 798, 544 |
399, 272 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 399 x 272 = 217056
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/217056
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8618/798,6320/544 is 2/217056
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 798,544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(798,544) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(798,544) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(798,544) = ( 798 × 544 ) / 2
LCM(798,544) = 434112 / 2
LCM(798,544) = 217056
