Lets's calculate LCM of 912,8172
2 | 912, 8172 |
2 | 456, 4086 |
3 | 228, 2043 |
76, 681 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 76 x 681 = 621072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/621072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8805/912,7878/8172 is 3/621072
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 912,8172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(912,8172) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(912,8172) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(912,8172) = ( 912 × 8172 ) / 12
LCM(912,8172) = 7452864 / 12
LCM(912,8172) = 621072
