Lets's calculate LCM of 726,1396
2 | 726, 1396 |
363, 698 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 363 x 698 = 506748
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/506748
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7217/726,1149/1396 is 1/506748
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 726,1396 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(726,1396) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(726,1396) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(726,1396) = ( 726 × 1396 ) / 2
LCM(726,1396) = 1013496 / 2
LCM(726,1396) = 506748
