So the greatest common factor 6993,9783 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 748,1006
2 | 748, 1006 |
374, 503 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 374 x 503 = 376244
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/376244
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6993/748,9783/1006 is 9/376244
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 748,1006 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(748,1006) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(748,1006) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(748,1006) = ( 748 × 1006 ) / 2
LCM(748,1006) = 752488 / 2
LCM(748,1006) = 376244
