Lets's calculate LCM of 708,1696
2 | 708, 1696 |
2 | 354, 848 |
177, 424 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 177 x 424 = 300192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/300192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3731/708,9416/1696 is 1/300192
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 708,1696 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(708,1696) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(708,1696) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(708,1696) = ( 708 × 1696 ) / 4
LCM(708,1696) = 1200768 / 4
LCM(708,1696) = 300192
