Lets's calculate LCM of 738,9429
3 | 738, 9429 |
246, 3143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 246 x 3143 = 2319534
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 504/2319534
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8568/738,2016/9429 is 504/2319534
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 738,9429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(738,9429) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(738,9429) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(738,9429) = ( 738 × 9429 ) / 3
LCM(738,9429) = 6958602 / 3
LCM(738,9429) = 2319534
