Lets's calculate LCM of 372,1138
2 | 372, 1138 |
186, 569 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 186 x 569 = 211668
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/211668
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2524/372,7569/1138 is 1/211668
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 372,1138 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,1138) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,1138) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(372,1138) = ( 372 × 1138 ) / 2
LCM(372,1138) = 423336 / 2
LCM(372,1138) = 211668
