Lets's calculate LCM of 552,7584
2 | 552, 7584 |
2 | 276, 3792 |
2 | 138, 1896 |
3 | 69, 948 |
23, 316 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 23 x 316 = 174432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/174432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1156/552,5865/7584 is 17/174432
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 552,7584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(552,7584) = 24
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(552,7584) x common factors =24 x 1 = 24
LCM(552,7584) = ( 552 × 7584 ) / 24
LCM(552,7584) = 4186368 / 24
LCM(552,7584) = 174432
