Lets's calculate LCM of 32,721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/23072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8835/32,4636/721 is 19/23072
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 32,721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(32,721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(32,721) = ( 32 × 721 ) / 1
LCM(32,721) = 23072 / 1
LCM(32,721) = 23072
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
