Lets's calculate LCM of 740,7776
2 | 740, 7776 |
2 | 370, 3888 |
185, 1944 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 185 x 1944 = 1438560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1438560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4493/740,4296/7776 is 1/1438560
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 740,7776 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(740,7776) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(740,7776) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(740,7776) = ( 740 × 7776 ) / 4
LCM(740,7776) = 5754240 / 4
LCM(740,7776) = 1438560
