Lets's calculate LCM of 706,2952
2 | 706, 2952 |
353, 1476 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 353 x 1476 = 1042056
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1042056
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1032/706,5037/2952 is 3/1042056
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 706,2952 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(706,2952) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(706,2952) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(706,2952) = ( 706 × 2952 ) / 2
LCM(706,2952) = 2084112 / 2
LCM(706,2952) = 1042056
