Lets's calculate LCM of 420,5830
2 | 420, 5830 |
5 | 210, 2915 |
42, 583 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 42 x 583 = 244860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/244860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2632/420,4291/5830 is 7/244860
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 420,5830 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,5830) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,5830) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(420,5830) = ( 420 × 5830 ) / 10
LCM(420,5830) = 2448600 / 10
LCM(420,5830) = 244860
