So the greatest common factor 8550,8172 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 762,1104
2 | 762, 1104 |
3 | 381, 552 |
127, 184 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 127 x 184 = 140208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/140208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8550/762,8172/1104 is 18/140208
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 762,1104 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(762,1104) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(762,1104) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(762,1104) = ( 762 × 1104 ) / 6
LCM(762,1104) = 841248 / 6
LCM(762,1104) = 140208
