2 | 322, 1542 |
161, 771 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 161 x 771 = 248262
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/248262
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1681/322,3856/1542 is 1/248262
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 322,1542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(322,1542) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(322,1542) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(322,1542) = ( 322 × 1542 ) / 2
LCM(322,1542) = 496524 / 2
LCM(322,1542) = 248262
