Lets's calculate LCM of 40,6086
2 | 40, 6086 |
20, 3043 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 20 x 3043 = 121720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/121720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 748/40,429/6086 is 11/121720
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 40,6086 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,6086) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,6086) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(40,6086) = ( 40 × 6086 ) / 2
LCM(40,6086) = 243440 / 2
LCM(40,6086) = 121720
