Lets's calculate LCM of 656,1728
2 | 656, 1728 |
2 | 328, 864 |
2 | 164, 432 |
2 | 82, 216 |
41, 108 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 41 x 108 = 70848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/70848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7399/656,8664/1728 is 1/70848
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 656,1728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,1728) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,1728) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(656,1728) = ( 656 × 1728 ) / 16
LCM(656,1728) = 1133568 / 16
LCM(656,1728) = 70848
