Lets's calculate LCM of 572,6246
2 | 572, 6246 |
286, 3123 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 286 x 3123 = 1786356
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1786356
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2762/572,3504/6246 is 2/1786356
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 572,6246 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,6246) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,6246) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(572,6246) = ( 572 × 6246 ) / 2
LCM(572,6246) = 3572712 / 2
LCM(572,6246) = 1786356
