Lets's calculate LCM of 697,9554
17 | 697, 9554 |
41, 562 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 41 x 562 = 391714
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/391714
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7272/697,2161/9554 is 1/391714
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 697,9554 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(697,9554) = 17
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(697,9554) x common factors =17 x 1 = 17
LCM(697,9554) = ( 697 × 9554 ) / 17
LCM(697,9554) = 6659138 / 17
LCM(697,9554) = 391714
