Lets's calculate LCM of 862,2796
2 | 862, 2796 |
431, 1398 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 431 x 1398 = 1205076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 147/1205076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9261/862,2793/2796 is 147/1205076
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 862,2796 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,2796) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,2796) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(862,2796) = ( 862 × 2796 ) / 2
LCM(862,2796) = 2410152 / 2
LCM(862,2796) = 1205076
