So the greatest common factor 14,1129 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 388,2372
2 | 388, 2372 |
2 | 194, 1186 |
97, 593 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 97 x 593 = 230084
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/230084
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/388,1129/2372 is 1/230084
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 388,2372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(388,2372) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(388,2372) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(388,2372) = ( 388 × 2372 ) / 4
LCM(388,2372) = 920336 / 4
LCM(388,2372) = 230084
