So the greatest common factor 740,9694 is 74.
Lets's calculate LCM of 56,790
2 | 56, 790 |
28, 395 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 28 x 395 = 22120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 74/22120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 740/56,9694/790 is 74/22120
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 56,790 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(56,790) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(56,790) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(56,790) = ( 56 × 790 ) / 2
LCM(56,790) = 44240 / 2
LCM(56,790) = 22120
