Lets's calculate LCM of 708,388
2 | 708, 388 |
2 | 354, 194 |
177, 97 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 177 x 97 = 68676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/68676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3578/708,9663/388 is 1/68676
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 708,388 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(708,388) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(708,388) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(708,388) = ( 708 × 388 ) / 4
LCM(708,388) = 274704 / 4
LCM(708,388) = 68676
