So the greatest common factor 8366,1736 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,5376
2 | 264, 5376 |
2 | 132, 2688 |
2 | 66, 1344 |
3 | 33, 672 |
11, 224 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 224 = 59136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/59136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8366/264,1736/5376 is 2/59136
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 264,5376 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,5376) = 24
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,5376) x common factors =24 x 1 = 24
LCM(264,5376) = ( 264 × 5376 ) / 24
LCM(264,5376) = 1419264 / 24
LCM(264,5376) = 59136
