Lets's calculate LCM of 63,735
| 3 | 63, 735 |
| 7 | 21, 245 |
| 3, 35 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 3 x 35 = 2205
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 64/2205
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9536/63,6848/735 is 64/2205
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 63,735 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(63,735) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(63,735) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(63,735) = ( 63 × 735 ) / 21
LCM(63,735) = 46305 / 21
LCM(63,735) = 2205
