Lets's calculate LCM of 726,7777
11 | 726, 7777 |
66, 707 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 66 x 707 = 513282
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/513282
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2502/726,3852/7777 is 18/513282
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 726,7777 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,7777) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,7777) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(726,7777) = ( 726 × 7777 ) / 11
LCM(726,7777) = 5646102 / 11
LCM(726,7777) = 513282
