Lets's calculate LCM of 790,6688
2 | 790, 6688 |
395, 3344 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 395 x 3344 = 2641760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/2641760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9471/790,7172/6688 is 11/2641760
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 790,6688 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(790,6688) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(790,6688) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(790,6688) = ( 790 × 6688 ) / 2
LCM(790,6688) = 5283520 / 2
LCM(790,6688) = 2641760
