Lets's calculate LCM of 418,736
2 | 418, 736 |
209, 368 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 209 x 368 = 153824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/153824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5533/418,9170/736 is 1/153824
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 418,736 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(418,736) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(418,736) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(418,736) = ( 418 × 736 ) / 2
LCM(418,736) = 307648 / 2
LCM(418,736) = 153824
