Lets's calculate LCM of 562,426
2 | 562, 426 |
281, 213 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 281 x 213 = 119706
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/119706
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 207/562,8272/426 is 1/119706
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 562,426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(562,426) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(562,426) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(562,426) = ( 562 × 426 ) / 2
LCM(562,426) = 239412 / 2
LCM(562,426) = 119706
