So the greatest common factor 730,962 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,7273
7 | 14, 7273 |
2, 1039 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 2 x 1039 = 14546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/14546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 730/14,962/7273 is 2/14546
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 14,7273 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,7273) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,7273) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(14,7273) = ( 14 × 7273 ) / 7
LCM(14,7273) = 101822 / 7
LCM(14,7273) = 14546
