Lets's calculate LCM of 37,884
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/32708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7403/37,5236/884 is 11/32708
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 37,884 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,884) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,884) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,884) = ( 37 × 884 ) / 1
LCM(37,884) = 32708 / 1
LCM(37,884) = 32708
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
