Lets's calculate LCM of 656,8476
2 | 656, 8476 |
2 | 328, 4238 |
164, 2119 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 164 x 2119 = 1390064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1390064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9990/656,2697/8476 is 3/1390064
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 656,8476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,8476) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,8476) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(656,8476) = ( 656 × 8476 ) / 4
LCM(656,8476) = 5560256 / 4
LCM(656,8476) = 1390064
