Lets's calculate LCM of 376,762
2 | 376, 762 |
188, 381 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 188 x 381 = 143256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/143256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 494/376,9911/762 is 1/143256
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 376,762 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(376,762) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(376,762) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(376,762) = ( 376 × 762 ) / 2
LCM(376,762) = 286512 / 2
LCM(376,762) = 143256
