So the greatest common factor 1944,1268 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 251,5694
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1429194
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1429194
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1944/251,1268/5694 is 4/1429194
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 251,5694 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,5694) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,5694) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,5694) = ( 251 × 5694 ) / 1
LCM(251,5694) = 1429194 / 1
LCM(251,5694) = 1429194
