Lets's calculate LCM of 624,278
2 | 624, 278 |
312, 139 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 312 x 139 = 86736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/86736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 715/624,7612/278 is 11/86736
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 624,278 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(624,278) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(624,278) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(624,278) = ( 624 × 278 ) / 2
LCM(624,278) = 173472 / 2
LCM(624,278) = 86736
