So the greatest common factor 732,3378 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 912,6776
2 | 912, 6776 |
2 | 456, 3388 |
2 | 228, 1694 |
114, 847 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 114 x 847 = 772464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/772464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 732/912,3378/6776 is 6/772464
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 912,6776 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(912,6776) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(912,6776) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(912,6776) = ( 912 × 6776 ) / 8
LCM(912,6776) = 6179712 / 8
LCM(912,6776) = 772464
