So the greatest common factor 2031,1561 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 268,7488
2 | 268, 7488 |
2 | 134, 3744 |
67, 1872 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 67 x 1872 = 501696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/501696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2031/268,1561/7488 is 1/501696
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 268,7488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(268,7488) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(268,7488) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(268,7488) = ( 268 × 7488 ) / 4
LCM(268,7488) = 2006784 / 4
LCM(268,7488) = 501696
