Lets's calculate LCM of 848,3772
2 | 848, 3772 |
2 | 424, 1886 |
212, 943 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 212 x 943 = 799664
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/799664
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6731/848,7317/3772 is 1/799664
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 848,3772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(848,3772) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(848,3772) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(848,3772) = ( 848 × 3772 ) / 4
LCM(848,3772) = 3198656 / 4
LCM(848,3772) = 799664
