Lets's calculate LCM of 316,584
2 | 316, 584 |
2 | 158, 292 |
79, 146 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 79 x 146 = 46136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 736/316,9981/584 is 1/46136
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 316,584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(316,584) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(316,584) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(316,584) = ( 316 × 584 ) / 4
LCM(316,584) = 184544 / 4
LCM(316,584) = 46136
