So the greatest common factor 7420,8904 is 1484.
Lets's calculate LCM of 290,766
2 | 290, 766 |
145, 383 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 145 x 383 = 111070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1484/111070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7420/290,8904/766 is 1484/111070
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 290,766 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(290,766) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(290,766) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(290,766) = ( 290 × 766 ) / 2
LCM(290,766) = 222140 / 2
LCM(290,766) = 111070
