Lets's calculate LCM of 722,9968
2 | 722, 9968 |
361, 4984 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 361 x 4984 = 3598448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3598448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9397/722,2236/9968 is 1/3598448
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 722,9968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(722,9968) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(722,9968) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(722,9968) = ( 722 × 9968 ) / 2
LCM(722,9968) = 7196896 / 2
LCM(722,9968) = 3598448
