Lets's calculate LCM of 542,9734
2 | 542, 9734 |
271, 4867 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 271 x 4867 = 2637914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/2637914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6784/542,4944/9734 is 16/2637914
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 542,9734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,9734) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,9734) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(542,9734) = ( 542 × 9734 ) / 2
LCM(542,9734) = 5275828 / 2
LCM(542,9734) = 2637914
