Lets's calculate LCM of 628,5116
2 | 628, 5116 |
2 | 314, 2558 |
157, 1279 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 157 x 1279 = 803212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 141/803212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8883/628,8742/5116 is 141/803212
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 628,5116 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(628,5116) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(628,5116) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(628,5116) = ( 628 × 5116 ) / 4
LCM(628,5116) = 3212848 / 4
LCM(628,5116) = 803212
