Lets's calculate LCM of 464,7344
2 | 464, 7344 |
2 | 232, 3672 |
2 | 116, 1836 |
2 | 58, 918 |
29, 459 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 29 x 459 = 212976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/212976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9726/464,1046/7344 is 2/212976
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 464,7344 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(464,7344) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(464,7344) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(464,7344) = ( 464 × 7344 ) / 16
LCM(464,7344) = 3407616 / 16
LCM(464,7344) = 212976
