2 | 766, 9362 |
383, 4681 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 383 x 4681 = 3585646
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3585646
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9961/766,8972/9362 is 1/3585646
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 766,9362 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(766,9362) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(766,9362) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(766,9362) = ( 766 × 9362 ) / 2
LCM(766,9362) = 7171292 / 2
LCM(766,9362) = 3585646
