Lets's calculate LCM of 737,965
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 711205
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/711205
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2328/737,7974/965 is 6/711205
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 737,965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,965) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,965) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(737,965) = ( 737 × 965 ) / 1
LCM(737,965) = 711205 / 1
LCM(737,965) = 711205
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
