2 | 890, 7622 |
445, 3811 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 445 x 3811 = 3391790
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3391790
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8979/890,1077/7622 is 3/3391790
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 890,7622 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(890,7622) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(890,7622) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(890,7622) = ( 890 × 7622 ) / 2
LCM(890,7622) = 6783580 / 2
LCM(890,7622) = 3391790
