Lets's calculate LCM of 952,746
2 | 952, 746 |
476, 373 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 476 x 373 = 355096
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/355096
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6296/952,8430/746 is 2/355096
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 952,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(952,746) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(952,746) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(952,746) = ( 952 × 746 ) / 2
LCM(952,746) = 710192 / 2
LCM(952,746) = 355096
