2 | 762, 6836 |
381, 3418 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 381 x 3418 = 2604516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 109/2604516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 436/762,9701/6836 is 109/2604516
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 762,6836 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(762,6836) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(762,6836) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(762,6836) = ( 762 × 6836 ) / 2
LCM(762,6836) = 5209032 / 2
LCM(762,6836) = 2604516
