Lets's calculate LCM of 360,7284
2 | 360, 7284 |
2 | 180, 3642 |
3 | 90, 1821 |
30, 607 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 30 x 607 = 218520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/218520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7761/360,5856/7284 is 3/218520
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 360,7284 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(360,7284) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(360,7284) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(360,7284) = ( 360 × 7284 ) / 12
LCM(360,7284) = 2622240 / 12
LCM(360,7284) = 218520
