Lets's calculate LCM of 552,742
2 | 552, 742 |
276, 371 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 276 x 371 = 204792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/204792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8924/552,1795/742 is 1/204792
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 552,742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(552,742) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(552,742) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(552,742) = ( 552 × 742 ) / 2
LCM(552,742) = 409584 / 2
LCM(552,742) = 204792
