Lets's calculate LCM of 6348,3332
2 | 6348, 3332 |
2 | 3174, 1666 |
1587, 833 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 1587 x 833 = 5287884
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/5287884
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 696/6348,288/3332 is 24/5287884
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 6348,3332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(6348,3332) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(6348,3332) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(6348,3332) = ( 6348 × 3332 ) / 4
LCM(6348,3332) = 21151536 / 4
LCM(6348,3332) = 5287884
