Lets's calculate LCM of 385,6748
7 | 385, 6748 |
55, 964 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 55 x 964 = 371140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 861/371140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9471/385,1722/6748 is 861/371140
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 385,6748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(385,6748) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(385,6748) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(385,6748) = ( 385 × 6748 ) / 7
LCM(385,6748) = 2597980 / 7
LCM(385,6748) = 371140
