Lets's calculate LCM of 274,5100
2 | 274, 5100 |
137, 2550 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 137 x 2550 = 698700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/698700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1869/274,7224/5100 is 21/698700
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 274,5100 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(274,5100) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(274,5100) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(274,5100) = ( 274 × 5100 ) / 2
LCM(274,5100) = 1397400 / 2
LCM(274,5100) = 698700
