Lets's calculate LCM of 272,9814
2 | 272, 9814 |
136, 4907 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 136 x 4907 = 1334704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1334704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1421/272,5704/9814 is 1/1334704
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 272,9814 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,9814) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(272,9814) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(272,9814) = ( 272 × 9814 ) / 2
LCM(272,9814) = 2669408 / 2
LCM(272,9814) = 1334704
