Lets's calculate LCM of 556,5304
2 | 556, 5304 |
2 | 278, 2652 |
139, 1326 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 139 x 1326 = 737256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 154/737256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 308/556,3850/5304 is 154/737256
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 556,5304 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(556,5304) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(556,5304) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(556,5304) = ( 556 × 5304 ) / 4
LCM(556,5304) = 2949024 / 4
LCM(556,5304) = 737256
