Lets's calculate LCM of 792,736
2 | 792, 736 |
2 | 396, 368 |
2 | 198, 184 |
99, 92 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 99 x 92 = 72864
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/72864
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2188/792,3087/736 is 1/72864
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 792,736 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(792,736) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(792,736) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(792,736) = ( 792 × 736 ) / 8
LCM(792,736) = 582912 / 8
LCM(792,736) = 72864
