Lets's calculate LCM of 7461,8358
3 | 7461, 8358 |
2487, 2786 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 2487 x 2786 = 20786346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/20786346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 329/7461,294/8358 is 7/20786346
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 7461,8358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7461,8358) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7461,8358) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(7461,8358) = ( 7461 × 8358 ) / 3
LCM(7461,8358) = 62359038 / 3
LCM(7461,8358) = 20786346
