Lets's calculate LCM of 268,708
2 | 268, 708 |
2 | 134, 354 |
67, 177 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 67 x 177 = 47436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3396/268,5527/708 is 1/47436
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 268,708 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(268,708) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(268,708) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(268,708) = ( 268 × 708 ) / 4
LCM(268,708) = 189744 / 4
LCM(268,708) = 47436
