Lets's calculate LCM of 174,8252
2 | 174, 8252 |
87, 4126 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 87 x 4126 = 717924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/717924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8704/174,5828/8252 is 4/717924
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 174,8252 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(174,8252) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(174,8252) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(174,8252) = ( 174 × 8252 ) / 2
LCM(174,8252) = 1435848 / 2
LCM(174,8252) = 717924
