Lets's calculate LCM of 946,7008
2 | 946, 7008 |
473, 3504 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 473 x 3504 = 3314784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/3314784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 130/946,8346/7008 is 26/3314784
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 946,7008 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(946,7008) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(946,7008) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(946,7008) = ( 946 × 7008 ) / 2
LCM(946,7008) = 6629568 / 2
LCM(946,7008) = 3314784
