Lets's calculate LCM of 662,7740
2 | 662, 7740 |
331, 3870 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 331 x 3870 = 2561940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/2561940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7266/662,8197/7740 is 7/2561940
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 662,7740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(662,7740) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(662,7740) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(662,7740) = ( 662 × 7740 ) / 2
LCM(662,7740) = 5123880 / 2
LCM(662,7740) = 2561940
