Lets's calculate LCM of 504,296
2 | 504, 296 |
2 | 252, 148 |
2 | 126, 74 |
63, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 63 x 37 = 18648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8752/504,3181/296 is 1/18648
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 504,296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(504,296) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(504,296) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(504,296) = ( 504 × 296 ) / 8
LCM(504,296) = 149184 / 8
LCM(504,296) = 18648
