Lets's calculate LCM of 742,5131
7 | 742, 5131 |
106, 733 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 106 x 733 = 543886
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/543886
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3054/742,1239/5131 is 3/543886
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 742,5131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(742,5131) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(742,5131) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(742,5131) = ( 742 × 5131 ) / 7
LCM(742,5131) = 3807202 / 7
LCM(742,5131) = 543886
