Lets's calculate LCM of 748,3990
2 | 748, 3990 |
374, 1995 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 374 x 1995 = 1492260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1492260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2555/748,9174/3990 is 1/1492260
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 748,3990 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(748,3990) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(748,3990) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(748,3990) = ( 748 × 3990 ) / 2
LCM(748,3990) = 2984520 / 2
LCM(748,3990) = 1492260
