So the greatest common factor 975,5490 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 737,902
11 | 737, 902 |
67, 82 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 67 x 82 = 60434
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/60434
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 975/737,5490/902 is 15/60434
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 737,902 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,902) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,902) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(737,902) = ( 737 × 902 ) / 11
LCM(737,902) = 664774 / 11
LCM(737,902) = 60434
