Lets's calculate LCM of 840,3366
2 | 840, 3366 |
3 | 420, 1683 |
140, 561 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 140 x 561 = 471240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/471240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7270/840,7460/3366 is 10/471240
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 840,3366 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(840,3366) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(840,3366) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(840,3366) = ( 840 × 3366 ) / 6
LCM(840,3366) = 2827440 / 6
LCM(840,3366) = 471240
