So the greatest common factor 6880,7532 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,756
3 | 87, 756 |
29, 252 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 29 x 252 = 21924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/21924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6880/87,7532/756 is 4/21924
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 87,756 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,756) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,756) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(87,756) = ( 87 × 756 ) / 3
LCM(87,756) = 65772 / 3
LCM(87,756) = 21924
