So the greatest common factor 918,714 is 102.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,664
2 | 78, 664 |
39, 332 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 39 x 332 = 25896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 102/25896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 918/78,714/664 is 102/25896
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 78,664 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,664) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,664) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(78,664) = ( 78 × 664 ) / 2
LCM(78,664) = 51792 / 2
LCM(78,664) = 25896
