Lets's calculate LCM of 266,8267
7 | 266, 8267 |
38, 1181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 38 x 1181 = 314146
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/314146
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7296/266,1959/8267 is 3/314146
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 266,8267 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(266,8267) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(266,8267) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(266,8267) = ( 266 × 8267 ) / 7
LCM(266,8267) = 2199022 / 7
LCM(266,8267) = 314146
