We found the factors 7176,7740 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7176,7740 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 290,728
2 | 290, 728 |
145, 364 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 145 x 364 = 105560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/105560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7176/290,7740/728 is 12/105560
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 290,728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(290,728) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(290,728) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(290,728) = ( 290 × 728 ) / 2
LCM(290,728) = 211120 / 2
LCM(290,728) = 105560
