2 | 958, 4218 |
479, 2109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 479 x 2109 = 2020422
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2020422
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1526/958,5857/4218 is 1/2020422
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 958,4218 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(958,4218) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(958,4218) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(958,4218) = ( 958 × 4218 ) / 2
LCM(958,4218) = 4040844 / 2
LCM(958,4218) = 2020422
