Lets's calculate LCM of 264,7744
2 | 264, 7744 |
2 | 132, 3872 |
2 | 66, 1936 |
11 | 33, 968 |
3, 88 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 3 x 88 = 23232
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/23232
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2116/264,3136/7744 is 4/23232
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 264,7744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,7744) = 88
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,7744) x common factors =88 x 1 = 88
LCM(264,7744) = ( 264 × 7744 ) / 88
LCM(264,7744) = 2044416 / 88
LCM(264,7744) = 23232
