Lets's calculate LCM of 972,4080
2 | 972, 4080 |
2 | 486, 2040 |
3 | 243, 1020 |
81, 340 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 81 x 340 = 330480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/330480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8691/972,7886/4080 is 1/330480
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 972,4080 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,4080) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,4080) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(972,4080) = ( 972 × 4080 ) / 12
LCM(972,4080) = 3965760 / 12
LCM(972,4080) = 330480
