Lets's calculate LCM of 872,6388
2 | 872, 6388 |
2 | 436, 3194 |
218, 1597 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 218 x 1597 = 1392584
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1392584
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9159/872,7788/6388 is 3/1392584
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 872,6388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(872,6388) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(872,6388) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(872,6388) = ( 872 × 6388 ) / 4
LCM(872,6388) = 5570336 / 4
LCM(872,6388) = 1392584
