Lets's calculate LCM of 756,4728
2 | 756, 4728 |
2 | 378, 2364 |
3 | 189, 1182 |
63, 394 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 63 x 394 = 297864
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/297864
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1140/756,5774/4728 is 2/297864
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 756,4728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(756,4728) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(756,4728) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(756,4728) = ( 756 × 4728 ) / 12
LCM(756,4728) = 3574368 / 12
LCM(756,4728) = 297864
