Lets's calculate LCM of 737,670
67 | 737, 670 |
11, 10 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 67 x 11 x 10 = 7370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/7370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3948/737,4949/670 is 7/7370
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 737,670 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,670) = 67
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,670) x common factors =67 x 1 = 67
LCM(737,670) = ( 737 × 670 ) / 67
LCM(737,670) = 493790 / 67
LCM(737,670) = 7370
