Lets's calculate LCM of 497,5642
7 | 497, 5642 |
71, 806 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 71 x 806 = 400582
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/400582
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2321/497,8869/5642 is 1/400582
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 497,5642 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(497,5642) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(497,5642) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(497,5642) = ( 497 × 5642 ) / 7
LCM(497,5642) = 2804074 / 7
LCM(497,5642) = 400582
