Lets's calculate LCM of 432,7302
2 | 432, 7302 |
3 | 216, 3651 |
72, 1217 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 72 x 1217 = 525744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/525744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5217/432,5823/7302 is 3/525744
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 432,7302 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(432,7302) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(432,7302) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(432,7302) = ( 432 × 7302 ) / 6
LCM(432,7302) = 3154464 / 6
LCM(432,7302) = 525744
