Lets's calculate LCM of 336,2091
3 | 336, 2091 |
112, 697 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 112 x 697 = 234192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/234192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7537/336,2886/2091 is 1/234192
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 336,2091 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(336,2091) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(336,2091) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(336,2091) = ( 336 × 2091 ) / 3
LCM(336,2091) = 702576 / 3
LCM(336,2091) = 234192
