So the greatest common factor 3664,1550 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 62,772
2 | 62, 772 |
31, 386 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 31 x 386 = 23932
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/23932
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3664/62,1550/772 is 2/23932
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 62,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(62,772) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(62,772) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(62,772) = ( 62 × 772 ) / 2
LCM(62,772) = 47864 / 2
LCM(62,772) = 23932
