Lets's calculate LCM of 469,7154
7 | 469, 7154 |
67, 1022 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 67 x 1022 = 479318
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/479318
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8984/469,9856/7154 is 8/479318
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 469,7154 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,7154) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,7154) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(469,7154) = ( 469 × 7154 ) / 7
LCM(469,7154) = 3355226 / 7
LCM(469,7154) = 479318
