Lets's calculate LCM of 294,1176
2 | 294, 1176 |
3 | 147, 588 |
7 | 49, 196 |
7 | 7, 28 |
1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 7 x 1 x 4 = 1176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8375/294,5404/1176 is 1/1176
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 294,1176 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(294,1176) = 294
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(294,1176) x common factors =294 x 1 = 294
LCM(294,1176) = ( 294 × 1176 ) / 294
LCM(294,1176) = 345744 / 294
LCM(294,1176) = 1176
