So the greatest common factor 7990,9468 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,744
| 2 | 14, 744 |
| 7, 372 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 372 = 5208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7990/14,9468/744 is 2/5208
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 14,744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,744) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,744) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(14,744) = ( 14 × 744 ) / 2
LCM(14,744) = 10416 / 2
LCM(14,744) = 5208
