Lets's calculate LCM of 578,9422
2 | 578, 9422 |
289, 4711 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 289 x 4711 = 2722958
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2722958
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8684/578,2364/9422 is 4/2722958
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 578,9422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,9422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,9422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(578,9422) = ( 578 × 9422 ) / 2
LCM(578,9422) = 5445916 / 2
LCM(578,9422) = 2722958
