Lets's calculate LCM of 752,9578
2 | 752, 9578 |
376, 4789 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 376 x 4789 = 3601328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3601328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9876/752,8470/9578 is 2/3601328
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 752,9578 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(752,9578) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(752,9578) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(752,9578) = ( 752 × 9578 ) / 2
LCM(752,9578) = 7202656 / 2
LCM(752,9578) = 3601328
