So the greatest common factor 868,876 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 54,8709
3 | 54, 8709 |
18, 2903 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 18 x 2903 = 156762
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/156762
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 868/54,876/8709 is 4/156762
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 54,8709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(54,8709) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(54,8709) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(54,8709) = ( 54 × 8709 ) / 3
LCM(54,8709) = 470286 / 3
LCM(54,8709) = 156762
