We found the factors 7224,8136 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7224,8136 is 24.
Lets's calculate LCM of 954,778
2 | 954, 778 |
477, 389 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 477 x 389 = 371106
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/371106
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7224/954,8136/778 is 24/371106
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 954,778 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(954,778) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(954,778) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(954,778) = ( 954 × 778 ) / 2
LCM(954,778) = 742212 / 2
LCM(954,778) = 371106
