Lets's calculate LCM of 777,2136
3 | 777, 2136 |
259, 712 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 259 x 712 = 553224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/553224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 336/777,7364/2136 is 28/553224
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 777,2136 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(777,2136) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(777,2136) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(777,2136) = ( 777 × 2136 ) / 3
LCM(777,2136) = 1659672 / 3
LCM(777,2136) = 553224
