Lets's calculate LCM of 994,9727
71 | 994, 9727 |
14, 137 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 71 x 14 x 137 = 136178
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 952/136178
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6664/994,2856/9727 is 952/136178
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 994,9727 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(994,9727) = 71
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(994,9727) x common factors =71 x 1 = 71
LCM(994,9727) = ( 994 × 9727 ) / 71
LCM(994,9727) = 9668638 / 71
LCM(994,9727) = 136178
