Lets's calculate LCM of 9744,9808
2 | 9744, 9808 |
2 | 4872, 4904 |
2 | 2436, 2452 |
2 | 1218, 1226 |
609, 613 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 609 x 613 = 5973072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5973072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 371/9744,179/9808 is 1/5973072
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 9744,9808 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9744,9808) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9744,9808) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(9744,9808) = ( 9744 × 9808 ) / 16
LCM(9744,9808) = 95569152 / 16
LCM(9744,9808) = 5973072
