Lets's calculate LCM of 336,2716
2 | 336, 2716 |
2 | 168, 1358 |
7 | 84, 679 |
12, 97 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 12 x 97 = 32592
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/32592
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7204/336,5314/2716 is 2/32592
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 336,2716 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(336,2716) = 28
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(336,2716) x common factors =28 x 1 = 28
LCM(336,2716) = ( 336 × 2716 ) / 28
LCM(336,2716) = 912576 / 28
LCM(336,2716) = 32592
