Lets's calculate LCM of 462,7048
2 | 462, 7048 |
231, 3524 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 231 x 3524 = 1628088
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1628088
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2259/462,5120/7048 is 1/1628088
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 462,7048 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(462,7048) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(462,7048) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(462,7048) = ( 462 × 7048 ) / 2
LCM(462,7048) = 3256176 / 2
LCM(462,7048) = 1628088
