Lets's calculate LCM of 806,5368
2 | 806, 5368 |
403, 2684 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 403 x 2684 = 2163304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2163304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2854/806,3542/5368 is 2/2163304
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 806,5368 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(806,5368) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(806,5368) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(806,5368) = ( 806 × 5368 ) / 2
LCM(806,5368) = 4326608 / 2
LCM(806,5368) = 2163304
