Lets's calculate LCM of 174,5684
2 | 174, 5684 |
29 | 87, 2842 |
3, 98 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 3 x 98 = 17052
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17052
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2350/174,3606/5684 is 2/17052
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 174,5684 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(174,5684) = 58
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(174,5684) x common factors =58 x 1 = 58
LCM(174,5684) = ( 174 × 5684 ) / 58
LCM(174,5684) = 989016 / 58
LCM(174,5684) = 17052
