So the greatest common factor 7548,7380 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 912,9984
2 | 912, 9984 |
2 | 456, 4992 |
2 | 228, 2496 |
2 | 114, 1248 |
3 | 57, 624 |
19, 208 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 19 x 208 = 189696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/189696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7548/912,7380/9984 is 12/189696
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 912,9984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(912,9984) = 48
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(912,9984) x common factors =48 x 1 = 48
LCM(912,9984) = ( 912 × 9984 ) / 48
LCM(912,9984) = 9105408 / 48
LCM(912,9984) = 189696
