Lets's calculate LCM of 735,714
3 | 735, 714 |
7 | 245, 238 |
35, 34 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 35 x 34 = 24990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/24990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8752/735,7706/714 is 2/24990
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 735,714 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(735,714) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(735,714) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(735,714) = ( 735 × 714 ) / 21
LCM(735,714) = 524790 / 21
LCM(735,714) = 24990
