Lets's calculate LCM of 546,7342
2 | 546, 7342 |
273, 3671 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 273 x 3671 = 2004366
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2004366
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7322/546,2225/7342 is 1/2004366
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 546,7342 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(546,7342) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(546,7342) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(546,7342) = ( 546 × 7342 ) / 2
LCM(546,7342) = 4008732 / 2
LCM(546,7342) = 2004366
