Lets's calculate LCM of 343,5537
7 | 343, 5537 |
7 | 49, 791 |
7, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 7 x 7 x 113 = 38759
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/38759
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2398/343,5414/5537 is 2/38759
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 343,5537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(343,5537) = 49
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(343,5537) x common factors =49 x 1 = 49
LCM(343,5537) = ( 343 × 5537 ) / 49
LCM(343,5537) = 1899191 / 49
LCM(343,5537) = 38759
