So the greatest common factor 7348,1260 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 211,844
211 | 211, 844 |
1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 211 x 1 x 4 = 844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7348/211,1260/844 is 4/844
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 211,844 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(211,844) = 211
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(211,844) x common factors =211 x 1 = 211
LCM(211,844) = ( 211 × 844 ) / 211
LCM(211,844) = 178084 / 211
LCM(211,844) = 844
