So the greatest common factor 8954,7704 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 970,512
2 | 970, 512 |
485, 256 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 485 x 256 = 248320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/248320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8954/970,7704/512 is 2/248320
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 970,512 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(970,512) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(970,512) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(970,512) = ( 970 × 512 ) / 2
LCM(970,512) = 496640 / 2
LCM(970,512) = 248320
