Lets's calculate LCM of 847,737
11 | 847, 737 |
77, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 77 x 67 = 56749
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/56749
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5589/847,8415/737 is 9/56749
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 847,737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,737) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,737) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(847,737) = ( 847 × 737 ) / 11
LCM(847,737) = 624239 / 11
LCM(847,737) = 56749
