Lets's calculate LCM of 896,8904
2 | 896, 8904 |
2 | 448, 4452 |
2 | 224, 2226 |
7 | 112, 1113 |
16, 159 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 16 x 159 = 142464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/142464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9448/896,4206/8904 is 2/142464
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 896,8904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(896,8904) = 56
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(896,8904) x common factors =56 x 1 = 56
LCM(896,8904) = ( 896 × 8904 ) / 56
LCM(896,8904) = 7977984 / 56
LCM(896,8904) = 142464
