Lets's calculate LCM of 922,740
2 | 922, 740 |
461, 370 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 461 x 370 = 341140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/341140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8347/922,8517/740 is 17/341140
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 922,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(922,740) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(922,740) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(922,740) = ( 922 × 740 ) / 2
LCM(922,740) = 682280 / 2
LCM(922,740) = 341140
