2 | 752, 5938 |
376, 2969 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 376 x 2969 = 2232688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2232688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2146/752,9611/5938 is 1/2232688
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 752,5938 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(752,5938) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(752,5938) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(752,5938) = ( 752 × 5938 ) / 2
LCM(752,5938) = 4465376 / 2
LCM(752,5938) = 2232688
