Lets's calculate LCM of 700,886
2 | 700, 886 |
350, 443 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 350 x 443 = 310100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/310100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1378/700,5278/886 is 26/310100
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 700,886 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(700,886) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(700,886) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(700,886) = ( 700 × 886 ) / 2
LCM(700,886) = 620200 / 2
LCM(700,886) = 310100
