Lets's calculate LCM of 746,8764
2 | 746, 8764 |
373, 4382 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 373 x 4382 = 3268972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3268972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2929/746,6977/8764 is 1/3268972
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 746,8764 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(746,8764) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(746,8764) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(746,8764) = ( 746 × 8764 ) / 2
LCM(746,8764) = 6537944 / 2
LCM(746,8764) = 3268972
