Lets's calculate LCM of 801,6432
3 | 801, 6432 |
267, 2144 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 267 x 2144 = 1717344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1717344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8988/801,4322/6432 is 2/1717344
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 801,6432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(801,6432) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(801,6432) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(801,6432) = ( 801 × 6432 ) / 3
LCM(801,6432) = 5152032 / 3
LCM(801,6432) = 1717344
