Lets's calculate LCM of 832,288
| 2 | 832, 288 |
| 2 | 416, 144 |
| 2 | 208, 72 |
| 2 | 104, 36 |
| 2 | 52, 18 |
| 26, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 26 x 9 = 7488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6449/832,7168/288 is 1/7488
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 832,288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(832,288) = 32
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(832,288) x common factors =32 x 1 = 32
LCM(832,288) = ( 832 × 288 ) / 32
LCM(832,288) = 239616 / 32
LCM(832,288) = 7488
