Lets's calculate LCM of 232,7224
2 | 232, 7224 |
2 | 116, 3612 |
2 | 58, 1806 |
29, 903 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 29 x 903 = 209496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/209496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 573/232,7444/7224 is 1/209496
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 232,7224 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,7224) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(232,7224) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(232,7224) = ( 232 × 7224 ) / 8
LCM(232,7224) = 1675968 / 8
LCM(232,7224) = 209496
