So the greatest common factor 3312,5432 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,216
2 | 76, 216 |
2 | 38, 108 |
19, 54 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 19 x 54 = 4104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/4104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3312/76,5432/216 is 8/4104
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 76,216 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,216) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,216) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(76,216) = ( 76 × 216 ) / 4
LCM(76,216) = 16416 / 4
LCM(76,216) = 4104
