Lets's calculate LCM of 336,7862
2 | 336, 7862 |
168, 3931 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 168 x 3931 = 1320816
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1320816
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6582/336,3351/7862 is 3/1320816
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 336,7862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(336,7862) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(336,7862) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(336,7862) = ( 336 × 7862 ) / 2
LCM(336,7862) = 2641632 / 2
LCM(336,7862) = 1320816
