Lets's calculate LCM of 357,728
7 | 357, 728 |
51, 104 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 51 x 104 = 37128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/37128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7373/357,4233/728 is 1/37128
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 357,728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,728) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,728) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(357,728) = ( 357 × 728 ) / 7
LCM(357,728) = 259896 / 7
LCM(357,728) = 37128
