Lets's calculate LCM of 284,7202
2 | 284, 7202 |
142, 3601 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 142 x 3601 = 1022684
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1022684
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2941/284,5052/7202 is 1/1022684
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 284,7202 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,7202) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,7202) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(284,7202) = ( 284 × 7202 ) / 2
LCM(284,7202) = 2045368 / 2
LCM(284,7202) = 1022684
