Lets's calculate LCM of 736,8016
2 | 736, 8016 |
2 | 368, 4008 |
2 | 184, 2004 |
2 | 92, 1002 |
46, 501 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 46 x 501 = 368736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/368736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4396/736,3582/8016 is 2/368736
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 736,8016 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(736,8016) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(736,8016) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(736,8016) = ( 736 × 8016 ) / 16
LCM(736,8016) = 5899776 / 16
LCM(736,8016) = 368736
