2 | 666, 1318 |
333, 659 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 333 x 659 = 438894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/438894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2501/666,5207/1318 is 41/438894
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 666,1318 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(666,1318) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(666,1318) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(666,1318) = ( 666 × 1318 ) / 2
LCM(666,1318) = 877788 / 2
LCM(666,1318) = 438894
