Lets's calculate LCM of 156,5646
2 | 156, 5646 |
3 | 78, 2823 |
26, 941 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 26 x 941 = 146796
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/146796
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1050/156,5308/5646 is 2/146796
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 156,5646 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(156,5646) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(156,5646) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(156,5646) = ( 156 × 5646 ) / 6
LCM(156,5646) = 880776 / 6
LCM(156,5646) = 146796
