So the greatest common factor 7147,4721 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 836,564
2 | 836, 564 |
2 | 418, 282 |
209, 141 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 209 x 141 = 117876
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/117876
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7147/836,4721/564 is 1/117876
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 836,564 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(836,564) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(836,564) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(836,564) = ( 836 × 564 ) / 4
LCM(836,564) = 471504 / 4
LCM(836,564) = 117876
