Lets's calculate LCM of 146,542
2 | 146, 542 |
73, 271 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 73 x 271 = 39566
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/39566
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1441/146,3707/542 is 11/39566
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 146,542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(146,542) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(146,542) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(146,542) = ( 146 × 542 ) / 2
LCM(146,542) = 79132 / 2
LCM(146,542) = 39566
