Lets's calculate LCM of 124,2972
2 | 124, 2972 |
2 | 62, 1486 |
31, 743 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 31 x 743 = 92132
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/92132
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9869/124,8749/2972 is 1/92132
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 124,2972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(124,2972) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(124,2972) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(124,2972) = ( 124 × 2972 ) / 4
LCM(124,2972) = 368528 / 4
LCM(124,2972) = 92132
