Lets's calculate LCM of 752,2376
2 | 752, 2376 |
2 | 376, 1188 |
2 | 188, 594 |
94, 297 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 94 x 297 = 223344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/223344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5534/752,3551/2376 is 1/223344
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 752,2376 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(752,2376) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(752,2376) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(752,2376) = ( 752 × 2376 ) / 8
LCM(752,2376) = 1786752 / 8
LCM(752,2376) = 223344
