Lets's calculate LCM of 602,352
2 | 602, 352 |
301, 176 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 301 x 176 = 105952
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/105952
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1337/602,4872/352 is 7/105952
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 602,352 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,352) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,352) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(602,352) = ( 602 × 352 ) / 2
LCM(602,352) = 211904 / 2
LCM(602,352) = 105952
