Lets's calculate LCM of 629,851
37 | 629, 851 |
17, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 37 x 17 x 23 = 14467
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/14467
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2518/629,5270/851 is 2/14467
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 629,851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(629,851) = 37
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(629,851) x common factors =37 x 1 = 37
LCM(629,851) = ( 629 × 851 ) / 37
LCM(629,851) = 535279 / 37
LCM(629,851) = 14467
