2 | 564, 7438 |
282, 3719 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 282 x 3719 = 2097516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2097516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2903/564,5435/7438 is 1/2097516
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 564,7438 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(564,7438) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(564,7438) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(564,7438) = ( 564 × 7438 ) / 2
LCM(564,7438) = 4195032 / 2
LCM(564,7438) = 2097516
