Lets's calculate LCM of 722,786
2 | 722, 786 |
361, 393 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 361 x 393 = 283746
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/283746
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3406/722,6929/786 is 13/283746
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 722,786 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(722,786) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(722,786) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(722,786) = ( 722 × 786 ) / 2
LCM(722,786) = 567492 / 2
LCM(722,786) = 283746
