Lets's calculate LCM of 768,8726
2 | 768, 8726 |
384, 4363 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 384 x 4363 = 3350784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/3350784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3378/768,1038/8726 is 6/3350784
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 768,8726 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(768,8726) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(768,8726) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(768,8726) = ( 768 × 8726 ) / 2
LCM(768,8726) = 6701568 / 2
LCM(768,8726) = 3350784
