Lets's calculate LCM of 440,282
2 | 440, 282 |
220, 141 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 220 x 141 = 62040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/62040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1334/440,5543/282 is 23/62040
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 440,282 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(440,282) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(440,282) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(440,282) = ( 440 × 282 ) / 2
LCM(440,282) = 124080 / 2
LCM(440,282) = 62040
