Lets's calculate LCM of 9142,7306
2 | 9142, 7306 |
4571, 3653 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 4571 x 3653 = 33395726
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/33395726
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 447/9142,555/7306 is 3/33395726
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 9142,7306 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9142,7306) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9142,7306) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(9142,7306) = ( 9142 × 7306 ) / 2
LCM(9142,7306) = 66791452 / 2
LCM(9142,7306) = 33395726
