Lets's calculate LCM of 764,3262
2 | 764, 3262 |
382, 1631 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 382 x 1631 = 1246084
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1246084
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5340/764,4197/3262 is 3/1246084
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 764,3262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(764,3262) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(764,3262) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(764,3262) = ( 764 × 3262 ) / 2
LCM(764,3262) = 2492168 / 2
LCM(764,3262) = 1246084
