Lets's calculate LCM of 87,8913
3 | 87, 8913 |
29, 2971 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 29 x 2971 = 258477
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/258477
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 962/87,597/8913 is 1/258477
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 87,8913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,8913) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,8913) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(87,8913) = ( 87 × 8913 ) / 3
LCM(87,8913) = 775431 / 3
LCM(87,8913) = 258477
