Lets's calculate LCM of 538,2096
2 | 538, 2096 |
269, 1048 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 269 x 1048 = 563824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/563824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1271/538,5790/2096 is 1/563824
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 538,2096 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,2096) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,2096) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(538,2096) = ( 538 × 2096 ) / 2
LCM(538,2096) = 1127648 / 2
LCM(538,2096) = 563824
