Lets's calculate LCM of 431,5172
431 | 431, 5172 |
1, 12 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 431 x 1 x 12 = 5172
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5172
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4051/431,2488/5172 is 1/5172
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 431,5172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,5172) = 431
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,5172) x common factors =431 x 1 = 431
LCM(431,5172) = ( 431 × 5172 ) / 431
LCM(431,5172) = 2229132 / 431
LCM(431,5172) = 5172
