Lets's calculate LCM of 372,6662
2 | 372, 6662 |
186, 3331 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 186 x 3331 = 1239132
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1239132
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9742/372,6007/6662 is 1/1239132
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 372,6662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,6662) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,6662) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(372,6662) = ( 372 × 6662 ) / 2
LCM(372,6662) = 2478264 / 2
LCM(372,6662) = 1239132
