19 | 608, 5111 |
32, 269 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 32 x 269 = 163552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/163552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2242/608,9731/5111 is 1/163552
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 608,5111 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(608,5111) = 19
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(608,5111) x common factors =19 x 1 = 19
LCM(608,5111) = ( 608 × 5111 ) / 19
LCM(608,5111) = 3107488 / 19
LCM(608,5111) = 163552
