So the greatest common factor 2124,5364 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 717,276
| 3 | 717, 276 |
| 239, 92 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 239 x 92 = 65964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/65964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2124/717,5364/276 is 36/65964
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 717,276 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(717,276) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(717,276) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(717,276) = ( 717 × 276 ) / 3
LCM(717,276) = 197892 / 3
LCM(717,276) = 65964
