Lets's calculate LCM of 406,5068
2 | 406, 5068 |
7 | 203, 2534 |
29, 362 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 29 x 362 = 146972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 46/146972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 230/406,8326/5068 is 46/146972
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 406,5068 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(406,5068) = 14
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(406,5068) x common factors =14 x 1 = 14
LCM(406,5068) = ( 406 × 5068 ) / 14
LCM(406,5068) = 2057608 / 14
LCM(406,5068) = 146972
