2 | 998, 5138 |
499, 2569 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 499 x 2569 = 2563862
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2563862
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2327/998,3049/5138 is 1/2563862
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 998,5138 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(998,5138) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(998,5138) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(998,5138) = ( 998 × 5138 ) / 2
LCM(998,5138) = 5127724 / 2
LCM(998,5138) = 2563862
