Lets's calculate LCM of 782,3602
2 | 782, 3602 |
391, 1801 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 391 x 1801 = 1408382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1408382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9950/782,7405/3602 is 5/1408382
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 782,3602 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(782,3602) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(782,3602) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(782,3602) = ( 782 × 3602 ) / 2
LCM(782,3602) = 2816764 / 2
LCM(782,3602) = 1408382
