Lets's calculate LCM of 724,766
2 | 724, 766 |
362, 383 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 362 x 383 = 277292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/277292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 432/724,7881/766 is 3/277292
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 724,766 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(724,766) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(724,766) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(724,766) = ( 724 × 766 ) / 2
LCM(724,766) = 554584 / 2
LCM(724,766) = 277292
