Lets's calculate LCM of 404,1618
2 | 404, 1618 |
202, 809 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 202 x 809 = 326836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/326836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2536/404,1415/1618 is 1/326836
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 404,1618 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(404,1618) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(404,1618) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(404,1618) = ( 404 × 1618 ) / 2
LCM(404,1618) = 653672 / 2
LCM(404,1618) = 326836
