Lets's calculate LCM of 878,9522
2 | 878, 9522 |
439, 4761 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 439 x 4761 = 4180158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/4180158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9008/878,1072/9522 is 16/4180158
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 878,9522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(878,9522) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(878,9522) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(878,9522) = ( 878 × 9522 ) / 2
LCM(878,9522) = 8360316 / 2
LCM(878,9522) = 4180158
