Lets's calculate LCM of 442,5358
2 | 442, 5358 |
221, 2679 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 221 x 2679 = 1184118
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1184118
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1408/442,2903/5358 is 1/1184118
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 442,5358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,5358) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,5358) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(442,5358) = ( 442 × 5358 ) / 2
LCM(442,5358) = 2368236 / 2
LCM(442,5358) = 1184118
