Lets's calculate LCM of 267,3432
3 | 267, 3432 |
89, 1144 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 89 x 1144 = 305448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/305448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7400/267,3036/3432 is 4/305448
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 267,3432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(267,3432) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(267,3432) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(267,3432) = ( 267 × 3432 ) / 3
LCM(267,3432) = 916344 / 3
LCM(267,3432) = 305448
