Lets's calculate LCM of 342,5288
2 | 342, 5288 |
171, 2644 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 171 x 2644 = 904248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/904248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1645/342,1631/5288 is 7/904248
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 342,5288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(342,5288) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(342,5288) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(342,5288) = ( 342 × 5288 ) / 2
LCM(342,5288) = 1808496 / 2
LCM(342,5288) = 904248
