So the greatest common factor 1954,1947 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 196,5200
2 | 196, 5200 |
2 | 98, 2600 |
49, 1300 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 49 x 1300 = 254800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/254800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1954/196,1947/5200 is 1/254800
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 196,5200 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(196,5200) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(196,5200) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(196,5200) = ( 196 × 5200 ) / 4
LCM(196,5200) = 1019200 / 4
LCM(196,5200) = 254800
