Lets's calculate LCM of 372,644
2 | 372, 644 |
2 | 186, 322 |
93, 161 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 93 x 161 = 59892
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/59892
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 753/372,348/644 is 3/59892
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 372,644 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,644) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,644) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(372,644) = ( 372 × 644 ) / 4
LCM(372,644) = 239568 / 4
LCM(372,644) = 59892
