So the greatest common factor 8914,7370 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 365,146
73 | 365, 146 |
5, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 73 x 5 x 2 = 730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8914/365,7370/146 is 2/730
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 365,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(365,146) = 73
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(365,146) x common factors =73 x 1 = 73
LCM(365,146) = ( 365 × 146 ) / 73
LCM(365,146) = 53290 / 73
LCM(365,146) = 730
