Lets's calculate LCM of 506,438
2 | 506, 438 |
253, 219 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 253 x 219 = 110814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/110814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2023/506,3941/438 is 7/110814
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 506,438 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(506,438) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(506,438) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(506,438) = ( 506 × 438 ) / 2
LCM(506,438) = 221628 / 2
LCM(506,438) = 110814
