Lets's calculate LCM of 756,972
2 | 756, 972 |
2 | 378, 486 |
3 | 189, 243 |
3 | 63, 81 |
3 | 21, 27 |
7, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 9 = 6804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 766/756,219/972 is 1/6804
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 756,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(756,972) = 108
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(756,972) x common factors =108 x 1 = 108
LCM(756,972) = ( 756 × 972 ) / 108
LCM(756,972) = 734832 / 108
LCM(756,972) = 6804
