Lets's calculate LCM of 514,732
2 | 514, 732 |
257, 366 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 257 x 366 = 188124
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/188124
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 301/514,2919/732 is 7/188124
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 514,732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(514,732) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(514,732) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(514,732) = ( 514 × 732 ) / 2
LCM(514,732) = 376248 / 2
LCM(514,732) = 188124
