Lets's calculate LCM of 7466,8740
2 | 7466, 8740 |
3733, 4370 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3733 x 4370 = 32626420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/32626420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 524/7466,466/8740 is 2/32626420
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 7466,8740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7466,8740) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7466,8740) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(7466,8740) = ( 7466 × 8740 ) / 2
LCM(7466,8740) = 65252840 / 2
LCM(7466,8740) = 32626420
