2 | 834, 2688 |
3 | 417, 1344 |
139, 448 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 139 x 448 = 373632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/373632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/834,7426/2688 is 2/373632
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 834,2688 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(834,2688) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(834,2688) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(834,2688) = ( 834 × 2688 ) / 6
LCM(834,2688) = 2241792 / 6
LCM(834,2688) = 373632
