Lets's calculate LCM of 732,3544
2 | 732, 3544 |
2 | 366, 1772 |
183, 886 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 183 x 886 = 648552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/648552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9978/732,8490/3544 is 6/648552
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 732,3544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(732,3544) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(732,3544) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(732,3544) = ( 732 × 3544 ) / 4
LCM(732,3544) = 2594208 / 4
LCM(732,3544) = 648552
