Lets's calculate LCM of 894,5242
2 | 894, 5242 |
447, 2621 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 447 x 2621 = 2343174
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/2343174
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2112/894,4939/5242 is 11/2343174
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 894,5242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,5242) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,5242) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(894,5242) = ( 894 × 5242 ) / 2
LCM(894,5242) = 4686348 / 2
LCM(894,5242) = 2343174
