Lets's calculate LCM of 104,429
13 | 104, 429 |
8, 33 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 8 x 33 = 3432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7740/104,7252/429 is 4/3432
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 104,429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(104,429) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(104,429) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(104,429) = ( 104 × 429 ) / 13
LCM(104,429) = 44616 / 13
LCM(104,429) = 3432
